Vladimir Ilyich Lenin was an enigmatic leader, a resolute and
audacious politician who had an immense impact on 20th century
world history. Lenin's life and career have been at the center of
much ideological debate for decades. The post-Soviet era has seen a
revived interest and re-evaluation of the Russian Revolution and
Lenin's legacy.
This new biography gives a fresh and original account of Lenin's
personal life and political career. Christopher Read draws on a
broad range of primary and secondary sources, making use of archive
material made available in the Glasnost and post-Soviet eras. Focal
points of this study are Lenin's revolutionary ascetic personality;
his exploitation of cultural, educational and propaganda means; his
relationship to Marxism; his changing class analysis of Russia; and
his "populist" instincts.
This biography is an excellent and reliable introduction to one of
the key figures of the Russian Revolution and post-tsarist Russia.
