[lbo-talk] Russian revolution material

[B.]

Voline's _The Unknown Revolution_ is a book about the
Russian Revolution Chomsky has recommended more than a
few times. Voline, a pen name, was witness to it all,
starting from Bloody Sunday of 1905 onwards through
1917. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voline)

And let's not forget Nestor Makhno's accounts. :)
