Wrappers lightly soiled, with very minor edge wear; cheap, wartime paper embrowned but not brittle. A superlative survival, especially scarce in this condition. A compilation of writings representing Trotsky's final crusade against Stalinism and the propaganda campaign that Joseph Stalin launched to justify Trotsky's assassination. In January, 1929, Trotsky was expelled from the Soviet Union for criticizing Stalin's suppression of democracy in the Communist Party and for failing to develop adequate economic planning. After four years in Turkey, Trotsky lived briefly in France and then Norway, and in 1936 was granted asylum in Mexico, where he settled with his family in a suburb of Mexico City, Three years later, during Stalin's purges of his political foes, Trotsky was found guilty of treason in absentia. He survived a machine-gun attack on his home but on August 20, 1940, fell prey to a Spanish Communist, Ramon Mercader, who fatally wounded him with an ice-pick. Trotsky died from his wounds the next day. N. B. With few exceptions (always identified), we only stock books in exceptional condition, carefully preserved in archival, removable mylar sleeves.

Interestingly, a German translation had already appeared in Berlin in 1918, but the German-language group of the Socialist Party commissioned this new translation from Hartmann for the American edition.…
