Description:... While the capitalist world was experiencing The Crash and the beginnings of the Depression, a massive investment program initiated the Soviet Union's transformation from a peasant country to an industrial power. Here is a nearly day-by-day account of the establishment of political institutions only now being challenged by Gorbachev's reforms. Complements the two previous volumes, but is designed to stand on its own. Well-printed (in China) on acidic paper. Annotation(c) 2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
