The Bolsheviki and World Peace

This book expresses the ideas and views of Leon Trotsky which lighted him on the course of his policy toward the War, Peace, and the Revolution. The book throws light, therefore, on that policy. The spirit that flames and casts shadows upon this book are not only Trotzky's. It is the spirit also of the Bolsheviki; of the red left wing of the revolutionary movement of New Russia. It flashed from Petrograd to Vladivostok, in the first week of the revolt; it burned all along the Russian Front before Trotzky appeared on the scene.
