When Lenin died and the Russian Revolution began to devour its
leaders, Trotsky survived longer than most as an exile in Mexico,
until his assassination in 1940. The Essential Trotsky, first
published in 1963, demonstrates the significance of this innovative
and radical thinker's contribution to the Bolshevik success, the
magnetism of his personality, and also a certain tragic heroism
discernible throughout his life. The History of the Russian
Revolution to Brest-Litovsk was written immediately after the
events it describes, when Trotsky was attending the negotiations
that extracted Russia from the First World War; The Lessons of
October, an answer to his opponents in 1924, matches Lenin in power
of analysis; and Stalin Falsifies History, written in 1927,
presents the beginning of the distorting process by which Stalin
secured his position, and defeated a range of attitudes, many more
benign than his own, towards the future of the Revolution. This is
a fascinating reissue that will be of value to students with an
interest in early-twentieth century Russia, the Russian Revolution
and the writings of Trotsky more generally.
