Essential Works of Lenin

Along the most influential political and social forces of the 20th century, modern communism rests firmly on philosophical, political and economic underpinnings developed by Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, later known as Lenin. In this volume, comprising the four works generally considered his most important publications, Lenin presents the goals and tactics of communism with remarkable directness and forcefulness.

This collection contains four of Lenin's most significant works, including Imperialism, the Highest State of Capitalism, The State and Revolution and extracts from What is to be Done? and The Development of Capitalism in Russia
