Description: Anna Louise Strong, American journalist with many years of experience in the Stalin-era Soviet Union, People’s China and other countries of people’s democracy, always sympathetic to the cause, produces in this book her reflections and reminiscences about Stalin and the Stalin period of Soviet socialist construction. Published originally in 1956, it comes remarkably clear for its time period, questioning the dogmas thrown around and coming to certain conclusions with tremendous foresight. Despite some faults discussed in NEPH's Publisher's Note, its vivacity is unmatched in encapsulating the might of the Soviet state in winning out against the Opposition, the everyday life of the industrialization and collectivization, the shock brigades and Stakhanovites, the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact (along with its immediate causes and effects), the postwar rebuilding, and most importantly, the Great Patriotic War — that great epoch in the history of man which centuries of generations will cherish as dearly as that worldly 1945 Victory Day. The Stalin Era paints an authentic view of such a deeply falsified historical period, witnessed through the lens of a highly supportive foreign observer.
