Trotsky gave some very good advice in his short article Don't Spread Yourself Too Thin. We recommend everyone interested in studying the ideas of Marxism start by reading it. We also suggest reading If America Should Go Communist by Leon Trotsky and The Principles of Communism by Frederick Engels, and Workshop Talks by James Connolly. In particular the ABC of Communism by Nikolai Bukharin and Evgenii Preobrazhensky gives an excellent overview of many of the basic concepts of Marxism and a look at some of the progress made during the early years of the Soviet Union.
