Trotsky on Lenin


This is an excellent book. I think Trotsky's writing ability is often underestimated as is his devotion to the truth. This is not an outpouring of adulation. It is more a detailed political analysis. 

You can learn a lot about the Russian revolution and its genesis from this book and it is easy to read.

The translation is by Max Eastman and it is a work of literature in its own right.
