Published in Atlantic monthly Sep. 1898-Sep. 1899 under title The autobiography of a revolutionist. Graphic details of Russian conditions and of an eventful life. — A.L.A. Catalog 1904 “Kropotkin’s story is a singularly rich, diversified, and romantic one, and it is attractively told. Nothing more interesting in its way has ever been written than the chapters relating his prison life and escape. The book abounds in instructive pictures of Russian life and character, done with unconscious art.” – Standard Catalog for Public Libraries : Biography Section (1927)

Review of 'Memoirs of a Revolutionist (Collected Works of Peter Kropotkin)' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Esta autobiografía, escrita originalmente en inglés, cuenta cómo era la vida de un aristócrata moscovita a mediados del XIX; la educación en las academias militares de élite en San Petersburgo; el Lejano Oriente siberiano, todavía a medio explorar; y los movimientos revolucionarios tanto en Rusia como en la Europa Occidental. Interesantísimo todo y tan bien contado que se disfruta cada página. Cómo me habría gustado conocer a Kropotkin en persona.
