New York, Alfred A. Knopf, XV, 696 p.: Ill. Hardcover with dust jacket. Einband leicht berieben, Vorderschnitt ungleichmäßig, aber sonst ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar / Binding slightly rubbed, fore edge uneven, but otherwise a good and clean copy. - This remarkably ambitious book tells the story of the great social and political catastrophe that enveloped Europe between 1914 and 1945. In a period of almost continuous upheaval, society was transformed by two world wars, the Russian Revolution, the Holocaust, and the rise and fall of the Third Reich. Combining a powerful narrative with profound analysis, acclaimed historian Robert Gellately argues that these tragedies are inextricably linked and that to consider them as discrete events is to misunderstand their genesis and character. Central to the catastrophe, of course, were Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler, and this book makes use of recently opened Russian and German sources to explain how these dictators? pursuit of utopian?and dreadfully flawed?ideals led only to dystopian nightmare. In a groundbreaking work, Gellately makes clear that most comparative studies of the Soviet and Nazi dictatorships are undermined by neglecting the key importance of Lenin in the unfolding drama. Rejecting the myth of the ?good? Lenin, the book provides a convincing social-historical account of all three dictatorships and carefully documents their similarities and differences. It traces the escalation of conflicts between Communism and Nazism, and particularly of the role of Hitler?s anathema against what he called ?Jewish Bolshevism.? The book shows how the vicious rivalry between Stalin and Hitler led inescapably to a war of annihilation and genocide. The reverberations of this gargantuan struggle are felt everywhere to this day. / CONTENTS Abbreviations and Glossary Note on Russian Spelling and Dates Maps Introduction PART ONE: LENIN'S COMMUNIST DICTATORSHIP 1 The First World War and the Russian Revolution 2 On the Way to Communist Dictatorship 3 Civil Wars in the Soviet Union PART TWO: THE RISE OF GERMAN NATIONAL SOCIALISM 4 Nazism and the Threat of Bolshevism 5 First Nazi Attempt to Seize Power 6 Hitler Starts Over PART THREE: STALIN TRIUMPHS OVER POLITICAL RIVALS 7 Battle for Communist Utopia 8 Lenin's Passing, Stalin?s Victory 9 Stalin?s New Initiatives 10 Stalin Solidifies His Grip PART FOUR: GERMANS MAKE A PACT WITH HITLER 11 Nazi Party as Social Movement 12 Nazism Exploits Economic Distress 13 ?All Power? for Hitler PART FIVE: STALIN?S REIGN OF TERROR 14 Fight Against the Countryside 15 Terror as Political Practice 16 ?Mass Operations?

History, A bold new accounting of the great social and political upheavals that enveloped Europe between 1914 and 1945from the Russian Revolution through the Second World War. In Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler , acclaimed historian Robert Gellately focuses on the dominant powers of the time, the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany, but also analyzes the catastrophe of those years in an effort to uncover its political and ideological nature. Arguing that the tragedies endured by Europe were inextricably linked through the dictatorships of Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler, Gellately explains how the pursuit of their utopian ideals turned into dystopian nightmares. Dismantling the myth of Lenin as a relatively benevolent precursor to Hitler and Stalin and contrasting the divergent ways that Hitler and Stalin achieved their calamitous goals, Gellately creates in Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler a vital analysis of a critical period in modern history.
