Great for A-level - By: Peter Coles, 05 Dec 2005 
This book was lent to me by my hitory teacher, for some catchup work & background reading. I found that not only did it give an overview of the whole revolution but also anin depth look at the topic I required(NEP coincidentally). i would definitely give this a read, no matter who you are, although A-level or GCSE students will probably benefit the most, as it is really easy to read.
Amazing - By: Jeremy Jones, 11 Aug 2005 
THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION by Sheila Fitzpatrick is very concise & excellently written, giving a better understanding of the revolution & its purpose as well as a better outlook to the characters than other books on that era of history. I recommend this book with UNION MOUJIK, PUTIN'S RUSSIA, THE LIFE AND DEATH OF LENIN, RUSSIA'S UNFINISHED REVOLUTION to compliment this book on the Russian revolution & its aftermath until today's Russia.
A very useful and informative book - By: , 27 Oct 2004 
I'm currently studying history, & i'm reading this bookin conjunction with a history study guide,Communist Russia Under Lenin & Stalin by Chris Corin & Terry Fiehn they compliment each other & will aid your studies.
A diamond of a book for anyone interested in Russia. - By: , 13 Jun 1999 
This book is a valuble resource for any A-level history student, teacher or indeed anyone with a passing interest. Fitzpatric manages to give a fair & balenced review of the revolution, from its causes to its consequences.
