Recensioner

History informed and Marxian thought fueled the thoughts and deeds of three men, Leon Trotsky, Vladimir Lenin, and Joseph Stalin, who together form what might be called the founding fathers of the modern Russian State, otherwise known as the Soviet Union. This book chronicles the history of their lives and deeds and helps to provide at least a partial explanation of one of the Twentieth Century's greatest tragedies.

Nessuno aveva mai finora studiato la formazione e lo sviluppo di queste tre grandi figure della storia russa, dalla loro nascita alla rivoluzione, in modo da farci capire le lontane influenze locali, familiari, culturali, sociali, politiche, religiose da cui fu originato il gruppo dirigente del partito bolscevico al momento della rivoluzione.

A really detailed, well-researched, and seemingly objective discussion of events leading up to the formation of the Soviet Union, focusing on Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin. My only real complaint was that the book ended very abruptly, with no warning and no "pointers" as to further developments; I double-checked to make sure that I wasn't missing pages from the book. I have an early edition of the work, though, so this problem may have been remedied.

1861 Three Who Made a Revolution: A Biographical History, by Bertram D. Wolfe (read 20 Aug 1984) This 1948 book deals biographically with Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin up to 1914. This book is very rough on Stalin and also critical of Lenin. It discusses a lot of theory, as one should expect from its author, who in 1919 was one of the founders of the U.S. Communist Party and broke with Stalin in 1928. The author died in 1977. I did not get too absorbed in this book: maybe it is too heavy for a tyro in the field like me.… (mer)
