Notes
Description
"In London in 1907, a decade before the revolution, young Stalin has yet to achieve the power, nor acted on the ruthlessness, that will define his legacy. Instead Koba, as he is known, arrives in London for the 5th Congress of the Russian Communist Party where he--and many of his fellow Bolsheviks--are only allowed to remain as nonvoting witnesses. But his inability to vote does not limit his ability to act, and Stalin quickly begins forging alliances with the likes of Lenin, Trotsky, Rosa Luxemburg--and a vivacious Finnish activist named Elli Vuokko. As the Congress progresses, Koba begins to take daring risks--with the young Finnish idealist, with his past relationships to the Russian government, and with his future in the party. But as he manipulates those loyal to him and seeks to discover to whom he will remain loyal in return, we see a great political mind in the works, and witness the development of a dictator"--,Provided by publisher.
