Ian Birchall on Robert Service's Trotsky


I commented a while back on Robert Service's forthcoming take on Leon Trotsky, but it is nice to note that the latest newsletter of the London Socialist Historian's Group has a quite detailed critical review of Service's award-winning biography by historian Ian Birchall, entitled simply and aptly Out of Service. Well worth a look.

Edited to add: The Trotsky I refer to in this post is not to be confused with this one
