This essay aims to give a sense of Challinor's creativity as a Marxist historian and political activist. It suggests that The Origins of British Bolshevism perhaps reveals some of the limitations of Challinor's own slightly abstract and propagandist model of what "Bolshevism" represented. But it also signifies his distinctive and outstanding contribution.
