Abstract
The article is a review of “Unknown Ho Chi Minh” by D.D. Zusmanovich. In his book the author makes an attempt to re-examine some facts of the biography of Ho Chi Minh, the leader of the Vietnam Revolution, since, in the author’s opinion, in the Soviet era it was too “idealized”. D. Zusmanovich has drawn a certain amount of new materials from Russian archives. Using them he has tried to determine the nature of Ho Chi Minh's world-outlook, to substantiate the assumptions about the special relationships of Ho Chi Minh with British intelligence in 1933 and American intelligence in 1944-1945. However, the lack of general knowledge on the history of Vietnam and methodological weaknesses do not allow the author to achieve the main thing - to provide a scientific basis to his hypotheses.
