  1. The collected writings of Peter Kropotkin. Kropotkin grew up in the midst of the struggle between the peasants and workers and the government. He was born a prince of the old nobility of Moscow, was trained as a page in the Emperor’s court, and at twenty became an officer in the army. The discovery that he was engaged in revolutionary activities in St. Petersburg while he was presumably devoting his life to scientific geography, caused a sensation. He was arrested and held in prison without trial. He became at once one of the most hated and most beloved representatives of the revolutionary cause. Partial Contents: The September Days; The Convention-The Commune-The Jacobins; The Government-Conflicts with the Convention-The War; The Trial of the King; The Mountain and the Gironde; Attempts of the Girondins to Stop the Revolution; The Anarchists; Causes o the Rising on May 31; Social Demands-State of Feeling in Paris-Lyons; The War-The Rising in La Vendee-Treachery of Dumouriez; A New Rising Rendered Inevitable; The Insurrection of May 31 and June 2; The Popular Revolution-Arbitrary Taxation; The Legislative Assembly and the Communal Lands; The Lands Restored to the Communes; Final Abolition of the Feudal Rights; The National Estates; The Struggle Against Famine-The Maximum-Paper-Money; Counter-Revolution in Brittany-Assassination of Marat; The Vendee-Lyons-The Risings in Southern France; and The 9th Thermidor-Triumph of Reaction.
