Geoffrey Roberts examines the intellectual life of Joseph Stalin by analyzing the extensive personal library the dictator curated throughout his career. By scrutinizing the annotations, marginalia, and reading habits revealed in these volumes, the author provides a unique window into the ideological foundations and private thoughts of one of the twentieth century's most enigmatic political figures.
