    In Stalin’s library in the specialized theoreticians section he had seperate from general theoreticians, he had Marx, Engels, Lenin, Kautsky, Plekhanov, Trotsky, Bukharin, Kamenev, and Zinoviev on his list in that order based off of importance and on the number of writings from the authors he had.

    He was a good man, a kind one as well - in all concideration for his crimes - but a poor theoretician and a poor Bolshevik.

    You'd honestly be much better off reading Trotsky if this is a question on theoreticians. On a question of autobiographies, that's more of a your choice thing than anything.
