On Vladimir Ilich Lenin

For those interested in Political economy, this book tells a very important period in the life of V.I.Lenin, the years 1897-1899 which he spent in exile in Eastern Siberia. It consists of documentary testimonies of Lenin himself, his family, friends and acquaintances, which combine to produce an exhaustive picture of the circumstances of his life in the village of Shushenskoye, the people he associated with, and vast literary- revolutionary work he performed in the exile.
  I love how every detail in the book is so well written; the way every letter is put to perfect literary understanding, Lenin's thirst for knowledge, his outlook towars life- politics& economy. Myself, a student of economics (a zealous student of course... hahaha) relates to him on certain agendas and perspectives.
