  • Re: what Peter says at 1:30 - i haven't read Service's "Trotsky", but i've read his "History of Russia", and he does the same sort of thing there, too. e.g.// One moment he'll say that Lenin wanted to secure his own personal ambitions to rule, and the next moment he'll be talking about the rights of national self-determination that the Bolsheviks granted to the separate nations around Russia. Service cannot stay consistent even within his own analysis.

  • very interesting.

    i own Stalin and Lenin by Robert Service, but i'm yet to buy Trotsky... perhaps I will pass on that one..
