Critics Review
A book that is both sensible and sophisticated, scholarly and very readable
A book that is both sensible and sophisticated, scholarly and very readable – Simon Sebag Montefiore
Gellately sets a high standard… Lucid prose and vivid examples make the book admirably accessible to non-specialists… it also engages expertly in one of hte most closely fought historiographical battles of past decades, the Historikerstreit * The Economist *
Approachable… The book is strong in highlighting the almost unbelieveable terror and utterly ruthless assault on humanity in both regimes – Ian Kershaw * BBC History Magazine *
