Delve into a pivotal moment in history with the selected writings from the renowned Bolshevik leader. The insights from 1917 reveal the strategic thinking and revolutionary fervor that defined this transformative year.

In just nine months, the Bolshevik party surged from a mere 8,000 members to a formidable force of 400,000, fueled by a series of dramatic events that reshaped the political landscape. Following the February Revolution, the necessity for a renewed perspective on socialist revolution became evident, prompting the need for rearmament of the party's ideology.

With a bold approach and skillful tactics, the Bolsheviks navigated challenges, including a period of underground activity and the branding of Lenin as a state criminal by the Provisional Government. The failed coup by General Kornilov in August marked a turning point, allowing the Bolsheviks to unite and ultimately secure a majority in the Soviets.

Under Lenin's guidance, outlined in this volume, their victory laid the groundwork for the October Revolution. These selected writings emphasize the crucial role of revolutionary leadership and the party's strategies, serving as an invaluable resource for those committed to the ideals of socialist revolution today.
