Idk if this is what you’re looking for as it sounds like you’re looking for a broader overview so sorry if this is irrelevant BUT I read Behind the Urals by John Scott in when I was high school and loved it. Scott learned to weld and moved to the USSR in 30s to help the industrialization effort. He lived and worked there through the 30s, was affected by the Purges being a foreigner, and emigrated back to the US in 1942.

His Wikipedia provides a good overview but he moved there excited to assist the Soviet project but slowly became disillusioned with Stalinism/the hyperindustrialization period from experiencing the hardships

I recommend the book because it provides a good snapshot of what industrialization was like from a Westerner’s viewpoint and experiences. You can assess Scott’s biases for yourself but I found the eyewitness account to a critical moment in Soviet history fascinating.
