Publisher's Synopsis
Memoirs of a Revolutionist is an autobiography written by Peter Kropotkin, a Russian anarchist and revolutionary. The book chronicles Kropotkin's life from his privileged upbringing in the royal court of Russia to his eventual imprisonment and exile for his political beliefs. Kropotkin's memoirs offer a unique perspective on the revolutionary movements of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as he was intimately involved in many of the major events of the time. He participated in the Paris Commune, helped organize the first International Workingmen's Association, and was a key figure in the Russian Revolution of 1917. Throughout the book, Kropotkin reflects on his own experiences and the broader political and social movements that shaped his life. He discusses the failures and successes of various revolutionary movements, and offers insights into the anarchist philosophy that informed his own beliefs. Memoirs of a Revolutionist is a fascinating and insightful account of one man's journey through the tumultuous political landscape of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of revolutionary movements, anarchism, or the life of Peter Kropotkin.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
