A fascinating story

Lenin's Mistress is a fascinating story not only about his mistress but about a whole class of people who worked to achieve the revolution in Russia while Lenin was out of the country. The author makes his contempt for Lenin obvious.One of the best books I've read about this period in Russia.This book would also be good for people interested in Women's history.
