Its hard to imagine a 40+ year-old book in better condition than this. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. 172 pages. Lenin is the key to understanding the Russian Revolution. His dream was the creation of the world's first Socialist state. It was a short-lived dream that became a nightmare when Stalin rose to absolute power in 1929. Lenin was the avant-garde revolutionary who adapted Marxist theory to the practical realities of a vast, complex and backward Russia.
