Joseph Stalin was born in the Georgian town of Gori on December 18, 1878. His real name was Ioseb Besarionis dze Jughashvili, but he later took the name "Stalin," which means "man of steel." Stalin's father was a cobbler and his mother a house cleaner, and they both worked hard to support their family. Stalin did not have an easy childhood; he was often sick and his parents were very poor. Despite these difficulties, Stalin was a bright student and he excelled in school. In 1899, Stalin began studying at the Tiflis Theological Seminary. However, he soon became more interested in revolutionary politics than in religion. He joined a secret revolutionary society called "The People's Will" and became active in the underground resistance movement against the Tsarist regime. In 1902, Stalin was arrested and exiled to Siberia. He escaped soon afterwards and returned to Georgia, where he became a leader of the local Bolshevik party. When the Russian Revolution broke out in 1917, Stalin returned to Russia and quickly rose to power within the Communist Party. Stalin was known for his brutality and totalitarianism, but he also played a significant role in World War II and helped to rebuild Russia after the war. This book provides an in-depth look at this complex figure and offers new insights into his life and legacy.
