This is the best biography I have ever read.

If you are looking for a book on Lenin, or want to learn more about the Bolsheviks or the Russian revolution, this is a perfect book to start. Every page was interesting, the book flowed perfectly all the way through. The author did a great job putting the man's life into context, and actually explaining the times he lived in. It was very readable as well, the chapters were short which I love. If anyone is reading this and is on the fence about reading this book, do it! You wont regret it.
