Guillotine at Work The Leninist Counter-revolution

Originally published in 1940 in two volumes, this is the (partly eyewitness) account of the Leninist terror inflicted upon Russia. Maximoff, a life-long anarchist, fought in the Russian Revolution, organized with the metal-workers, and was imprisoned by Lenin_s secret police in 1920 when he refused to join the Red Army (he was happy to fight the Whites, but not put down workers_ and peasants_ uprisings). Exiled, he wrote this incredible volume, in English. Over the course of nearly 400 pages, he recounts not only the Leninist terror and reaction against the popular revolution, but shows how the actions of Stalin followed deliberately in h is master, and mentor_s footsteps. Volume 2, unfortunately never reprinted, was a collection of supporting documents/primary evidence. Regardless, this volume stands alone as a stunning, and sadly relevant indictment of the Bolshevik terror. This is the original American edition of the Cienfuegos Press edition, published here in America in 1979.Maximoff, Gregory Petrovich is the author of 'Guillotine at Work The Leninist Counter-revolution', published 1979 under ISBN 9780932366061 and ISBN 0932366066.
