I purchased this book for a Soviet History Class and really enjoyed it. Not only is it cute and fun, but very informative. A great and gentle introduction to Lenin. Perfect for people who want a better understanding of history, but are afraid of big heavy book or people who love big heavy book, but would love a picture once in awhile. (

Lenin is the key to understanding the Russian Revolution. His dream was the creation of the world's first Socialist state. It was a short-lived dream that became a nightmare when Stalin rose to absolute power in 1929. Lenin was the avant-garde revolutionary who adapted Marxist theory to the pravtical realitites of a vast, complex and backward Russia.
