notes on Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin
P.A. Sorokin collection; Archives & Special Collections, University of Saskatchewan
transcription and editing by Roger W. Smith and Natalia Sergieva
The manuscript (Sorokin’s notes) is undated, but internal evidence (a reference to Sorokin’s autobiography, which was published in 1963) indicates that it was written late in Sorokin’s life.
