Hi. I read Lars' book with great interest -- and WITBD has always been one of the most important writings in my life. I thought "Lenin Discovered" was fascinating and its many details were revealling -- though I confess that Lih's basic thesis is (i believe) wrong... i.e. the idea that Lenin was essentially an orthodox Erfurtian is (i believe) wrong... and minimizes the real leap that happened over time, in theory and practice, from left Social Democracy to something we now call Leninism or communism.
