History course work help: causes of the Russian revolution

I’m looking for books on the causes of the Russian revolution and I’m struggling to find some. I’m interested in one looks discussing books on the role of Lenin and failures of the Nicholas II but any causes I will take.

Thank you

Richard Pipes's book, A Concise History of the Russian Revolution is very good. A Concise History of the Russian Revolution: Amazon.co.uk: Pipes, Richard: 9780679745440: Books

I use it for some of the lessons I teach.

The first few chapters of Hosking's History of the Soviet Union will be helpful too. Both books are directed at first second year undergrads, so it shouldn't be a problem for you.
