Full Description
Josip Broz (1892-1980), nicknamed Tito, led Yugoslavia for nearly four decades with charisma, cunning, and an iron fist. A leader of the non-aligned nations, he and his Partisans fought Hitler during World War II and resisted the Soviet Union's postwar grasp, and he long enjoyed a reputation in the West as "the only good Communist" despite a dubious human rights record at home. Jože Pirjevec employs impressive research from archives in eight languages to offer this illuminating portrait of one of the most powerful figures of the Cold War era. This edition includes a foreword by Emily Greble that reveals the life and legacy of a complex man in turbulent times.
