<span>This collection of over fifty top-secret letters are drawn from classified Soviet archives only recently opened to scholars. The letters offer unique insight into Soviet foreign policy and Stalin's attitudes and intentions during the Great Terror of the 1930's and the years leading up to the Second World War. They confirm the dependence of Comintern on the Kremlin and Stalin's role in shaping it. They also shed light on the confusion about policies toward foreign Communist parties and the effect this had on the history of the twentieth century.</span>
