Three essays present a comprehensive picture of two decades in the history of the Menshevik party, from the first exhilarating days of the Revolution of 1917 through the party's years of trial in the underground and in political exile. The contributors - all of whom played significant roles in the Menshevik party - participated in many of events described. All have sought to probe why their party took, or failed to take, certain political decisions at critical moments. Description text copyright 2005 BooksForComfort. Item ID 9929.
