Robert Gellately published Lenin, Stalin, and Hitler: The Age of Social Catastrophe with Knopf. "Sensible and sophisticated, scholarly and very readable.

"Mr. Gellately sets a high standard for anyone writing about comparative dictatorship...Lucid prose and vivid examples make the book admirable accessible to non-specialists. But it also engages expertly in one of the most closely fought historiographical battles of past decades." -- The Economist
