DESCRIPTION:Grover Furr will critique Stephen Kotkin's biography, Stalin: Waiting for 
 Hitler, 1929-1941, based on Furr's book, Stalin: Waiting For ... The 
 Truth!\n \nIn October 2017 Stephen Kotkin, professor of history at 
 Princeton University, published "Stalin. Waiting for Hitler, 1929 – 
 1941." Kotkin accuses Soviet leader Joseph Stalin of dozens of terrible 
 crimes.The appearance of Kotkin’s scholarship is daunting: 909 pages of 
 text, more than 5200 footnotes, and 47 pages of bibliography in tiny, 
 triple-column type. But Grover Furr has carefully and methodically studied 
 every one of the hundreds of allegations of atrocity, crime, and misdeeds 
 of any kind that Kotkin attributes to Stalin and his closest advisers. Furr 
 has checked every reference, every article and book, that Kotkin cites as 
 evidence. The result: Not a single accusation holds up. Furr’s book is a 
 model of meticulous examination of evidence and careful, objective analysis 
 and deduction.\n \nThe first half of the event will be Professor Furr's 
 remarks. The second half will be open discussion from the floor.\n \nThe 
 preface to Furr's book is online so that you can read it and get an idea of 
 what his talk will be
