The General Against the Kremlin: Alexander Lebed - Power and Illusion

By Harold Elletson

The author of this study shows how, with Boris Yeltsin struggling to maintain his health, the Kremlin elite are plotting his successor while the most popular man in Russian politics is outside the Kremlin. He is General Alexander Lebed, the gruff Cossack whom Yeltsin first appointed and then removed as Russia's defence and security supremo.
