review Goodreads

"Students reading Scott have come away with a real appreciation of the hardships under which these workers built Magnitogorsk and of the nearly incredible enthusiasm with which many of them worked." --Ronald Grigor Suny

"A genuine grassroots account of Soviet life--a type of book of which there have been far too few." --William Henry Chamberlin, New York Times, 1943

" . . . a rich portrait of daily life under Stalin." --New York Times Book Review

General readers, students, and specialists alike will find much of relevance for understanding today's Soviet Union in this new edition of John Scott's vivid exploration of daily life in the formative days of Stalinism.

I found the book pretty balanced in the critique of the communist system and especially Stalinism but I think it was too appeasing regarding the purges, meaning the author tries to paint Staling and his administration as almost justified in making the purges and he states that the purges only affected a few million people.
I think this was due to the lack of data available to the author at that point, himself not being directly affected by the purge and his good will towards communism. Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn was much more critical of the purges and he had an inside view and better data available after the death of Stalin.
