American version of the missing volumes
In 1965, Stanford University issues 14-16 volumes, but their content does not match what the Political Publishing House disclosed. The latter promised the works of Stalin from 1934 to 1940, while the university released works only before the outbreak of war. The history of the Bolsheviks was replaced by works of war, and the works of the war period were replaced by works of the post-war period. Doubtful series.

Noticing negative emotions on the face of his subordinate, Stalin laughed and said: “Do you need a woman? Will you be a woman!”, And after a while a young stranger appeared in Poskrebyshev’s house.
