The clear voice of Lenin and the Bolshevik Party he had built rang out above the din of war and gave answer: "This is not your country, it belongs to the bosses and the rich.  These traitors are telling you to kill each other to protect the profits of the rich.  You - the Russian workers and the German and the French and the American and the British - must join together and stop the war.  Turn the guns against the rulers and bosses!  Turn the war into a revolution!" Lenin saw the truth." 33-34 p.  

A fabulously gory work intended for children.
