Good book

Excellent book about the leaders of the Soviet Union. This book traces the history of this important social experiment through the various party leaders. The authors seem to favor the communist philosophy so much that they ignore some important points about the weakness within the system that eventually led to it's collapse. Still, the book presents a ton of information in an easy to read format.
