          A life as riveting as any John Le Carré plot

          This landmark biography reveals the life of one of the most powerful figures of the Cold War era.

          Josip Broz (1892–1980), nicknamed Tito, led Yugoslavia for nearly four decades with charisma, cunning, and an iron fist.

          With his Partisans he fought Hitler during World War II, and after the war he shrewdly resisted the Soviet Union's grasp.

          A biography of the charismatic and controversial Yugoslavian leader Josip Broz Tito.

        1. A revealing biography of Tito, the Yugoslav leader who was a partisan against the Germans and the first Communist head to break with the Soviet Union.

        4. Three Tito biographers—Ivo Goldstein, Jože Pirjevec, and Geoffrey Swain—discuss their biographies of Josip Broz and the big man himself.

          5. A leader of the non-aligned nations, he long enjoyed a reputation in the West as "the only good Communist" despite a dubious human rights record at home. Jože Pirjevec employs impressive research from archives in eight languages to offer this illuminating, definitive portrait of a complex man in turbulent times.

          Pirjevec recounts how Tito, with little schooling but an astute intellect and driving ambition, rose through Communist Party ranks to shape and rule the Yugoslav federation.
