| Summary |
Using long concealed documents from the Soviet archives, shows that Lenin the man was a ruthless, manipulative leader who used terror, subversion, & persecution to achieve his goals. Lenin--the man, the revolutionary, and the world leader--has remained an enigma, part myth arising from the tumult of the Russian Revolution and part image carefully controlled for nearly seventy years by the leaders of the Soviet Union and their sympathizers abroad. The Unknown Lenin helps correct the myth and revise the image. |
