Trotsky. Exiled Prophet. 1929—1940

Isaac Deutscher, the author of a number of historical and sociological studies, examines Trotsky's life through the lens of Machiavelli's words that «armed prophets have always triumphed, while unarmed ones have perished.» In this book, Trotsky appears as the sole figure who openly opposed Stalinism, up until his tragic end. In the talented presentation of one of the best European researchers, you will become acquainted with the touching and strange story of the family relationships of the outstanding publicist and orator.
