Another Book on Trotsky Reviewed October 20, 2009

Posted by Garibaldy in History, Trotskyism.

Following on from the thread on Robert Service’s biography, I thought I’d draw people’s attention to Mick Hall’s review of Bertrand Patenaude’s book on Trotsky’s last years.

I think ‘Garibaldy’ means ‘Garibaldi.’ I hope. ‘Garibaldy’ sounds like a housing estate.

I’ve just started on the “Lost Revolution”. I skipped ahead to look
at the bits about Harris, and there’s a bit where someone
recalled Eoghan screaming about “f*cking Trots”.

With enemies like that, you reckon old Leon,for his many
flaws, must have had something in him that riled up a
certain type of authoritarian (isn’t George Galloway
always whinging about “Trots” as well?).
