I've heard of that and have some interest to read it, but I haven't actually seen a copy of it anywhere.

If you're into Stalin biographies I highly recommend "Stalin: Breaker of Nations" by Robert Conquest. First published in 1991, so I don't know how much access the author had to the then-newly-opened Soviet archives while writing it.
