Forgive me for recommending my own but this is very short, and if a few
documents are left out it can easily be read in one week:

*Lenin and the Making of the Soviet State: A Brief History with Documents. *
Co-authored

            with Georgiy Chernyavskiy. (Bedford/St. Martin, 2006) 176 pp.
 Bedford St. Martin is very good about sending out copies for
consideration.


You may know Professor Chernyavskiy from his many books and essays
published in Russia including his recent marvelous biography of Trotsky,
Georgii Cherniavskii, Lev Trotskii, in the series Zhizn' zamechatel'nykh
liudei (Molodaia gvardiia, 2010), which contains much new archival material
and is unfortunately not yet translated into English.
