Question by Thomas S: Anyone know where I can get a manuscript of Lenin’s speech at Finland Station?
I am currently analyzing the Russian Revolution.
I was wondering if anyone knew of where I could get (preferably download) a manuscript of Vladimir Lenin’s speech at Finland Station in regards to “Peace, Bread, Land!”
Thanks.
Thanks, but does anyone know where I can get the FULL manuscript (especially the part where he talks about Peace, Bread and Land).

Found it!
I haven’t been able to find the full manuscript. I can find snippets of it, here:
http://www.historyguide.org/europe/lecture5.html
a reference to Bread Land and Peace here:
http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=4pOSbnMSmHUC&pg=PA89&lpg=PA89&dq=bread+land+and+peace+finland+station&source=bl&ots=GpGViVLEyP&sig=-NFfo_H4tIuwT954Q18DJkjBttM&hl=en&ei=C9fESZD7OeCGjAftjKyLCw&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=2&ct=result
But, frustratingly, I cannot find either a hard copy or an internet resource that has the full text. I’ve searched all m books on Lenin & the Soviet Union for a copy & can only come up with snapshots of it, not the whole text.
The site: Marxism.org has most of his works, but only a Pravda report about the speech, and the Marx Memorial Library has not got even that.
The April Thesis is regarded as the Finland Station speech, written up and expanded upon, but that too has no Bread Land and Peace.
I’ll keep looking & amend this post if & when I find it
