For his research, Service even traveled to Abkhazia, where Stalin's datcha was located during the 1930s.[2]
The book is a descriptive account of Stalin's life, covering in detail his youth, rise to power and rule. According to the publisher, it uses a personal style which "humanizes Stalin without ever diminishing the extent of the atrocities he unleashed upon the Soviet population."[1]
