Publisher's Synopsis

A Prisoner Of Trotsky's is a book written by Andrew Kalpashnikff and originally published in 1920. The book is a memoir of the author's experience as a prisoner of the Soviet leader Leon Trotsky during the Russian Civil War. Kalpashnikff was a former member of the Russian Imperial Army who had defected to the Bolsheviks in 1917, but later became disillusioned with the Communist regime and was arrested and imprisoned by Trotsky's forces. In the book, Kalpashnikff describes his time in captivity and the harsh conditions he endured, including torture and interrogations. He also provides insights into the inner workings of the Bolshevik government and the political climate of the time. The book is a firsthand account of the brutality of the Soviet regime and the dangers faced by those who opposed it. Overall, A Prisoner Of Trotsky's is a fascinating historical document that sheds light on a little-known aspect of the Russian Revolution and the early years of Communist rule in Russia. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the Soviet Union and the struggles of those who resisted its oppressive regime.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
