One of the great political strategists of his era, V. I. Lenin
continues to attract historical interest, yet his complex
personality eludes full understanding. This new edition of Moshe
Lewin's classic political biography, including an afterword by the
author, suggests new approaches for studying the Marxist visionary
and founder of the Soviet state. Lenin's Last Struggle offers
invaluable insights into the rise of the Bolshevik party and the
Soviet Union, a saga complicated by complex strategic battles among
the leaders of Lenin's generation: leaders whose names are
universally known, but whose personalities and motivations are even
now not sufficiently understood.
Moshe Lewin was a collective farm worker in the USSR and a soldier
in the Soviet army. He later became director of studies at the
Ecole Pratique des Hautes Etudes in Paris, a fellow of the Kennan
Institute, a senior fellow of Columbia University's Russian
Institute, and is now emeritus professor of history at The
University of Pennsylvania.
