Ivan Maisky是斯大林大清洗时期，苏联驻伦敦的大使。那个时期苏联是不鼓励ZF官员留下任何档案的，更别说个人日记。Ivan Maisky——1932年至1943年驻伦敦的苏联大使——的这本勤奋的日记能留存下来，几乎是独一无二的。Maisky是一个非常善于社交的人，他与当时伦敦绝大多数政治家都有来往，这本日记也为二战期间一些著名历史事件补充了一个独特视角。这本日记被耶鲁大学教授Paul Kennedy认为“也许是二十世纪最有政治价值的日记。”
The Maisky Diaries: Red Ambassador to the Court of St James's, 1932-1943
The terror and purges of Stalin’s Russia in the 1930s discouraged Soviet officials from leaving documentary records let alone keeping personal diaries. A remarkable exception is the unique diary assiduously kept by Ivan Maisky, the Soviet ambassador to London between 1932 and 1943. This selection from Maisky's diary, never before published in English, grippingly documents Britain’s drift to war during the 1930s, appeasement in the Munich era, negotiations leading to the signature of the Ribbentrop–Molotov Pact, Churchill’s rise to power, the German invasion of Russia, and the intense debate over the opening of the second front.
