Avtorkhanov.  The work is divided into two volumes: "The Central Committee and Lenin" and "The Central Committee and Stalin".  On the basis of documentary data, the author shows how the "Leninist principles" turned the Bolshevik party from an ideological and political organization of like-minded people into an instrument of the leader's one-man dictatorship.
