The Revolution was hardly act of the common people, despite Howard Zinn's and Noam Chomsky's assurances to the contrary.

It was a nasty coup d'etat that led to the imposition of an authoritarian will on the people, one far more brutal and oppressive than even that of the Czars.

That you would idealize October 1917 shows that you have no understanding of the conditions that persisted in Soviet Russia for 80 years hence. Either that, or you are just a cheap propagandist.

I would agree with you, however, that "Ten Days that Shook the World" is certainly not a "brainiac" book.
