Reviews
"This is an excellent, deeply researched, and well-written book that will be required reading for those interested in Soviet history and will be useful for others in labor history."-J. Arch Getty, The Russian Review "Charters Wynn's engaging and scrupulously researched biography of Soviet trade union leader Mikhail Tomsky breaks new ground in the study of early Soviet political history. Depending on British and Russian archives and a substantive base of secondary sources, Wynn enriches and corrects older interpretations of Soviet trade union history and Communist Party politics in the 1920s." -Barbara C. Allen, author of Alexander Shlyapnikov, 1885-1937: Life of an Old Bolshevik. "Mikhail Tomsky is far from a household name among left-wing activists except for those who have studied the history of the Russian Revolution in some depth. In [this] very thorough account of the life of Tomsky, the American historian Charters Wynn goes an appreciable distance in reversing that unfortunate situation." -Sam Farber, New Politics
