Books by Roger R. Reese

Offers new insight into the workings of a military giant and also restores Leon Trotsky to his rightful place in Soviet military history by featuring his ideas on building a new army from the ground up. This book is an important look behind the scenes at a military establishment that continues to face leadership challenges in Russia today.

This is the first general work to place the soviet army into its true social, political and international contexts. It focuses on the aim to create a new type of army that both protected the people and propogated Marxist ideas worldwide.
