This book traces the ancestral lines of V.I. Ul`ianov (Lenin), including his Russian, Jewish, German, and Kalmyk forebears. It tells about the vicissitudes of research into the topic at Soviet libraries, and the obstacles encountered by those who delved into it. Among them was the author of the well-known book "The Ul`ianov family", Marietta Shaginian. M.G. Shtein suggests a new version about the origin of the pseudonym Lenin pointing to V.I. Ul`ianov`s friends in St. Petersburg, the well-born nobles who bore that name. Bibliographical references, genealogical trees of V.I. Ul`ianov (Lenin) and of his friends, the Lenins. Name index.
