Memoirs of a Revolutionist (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

Kropotkin’s Memoirs is an autobiographical account of his life as a social revolutionary. His formal work as a zoologist and geographer takes a backseat to his call for radical social reform in the guise of anarchist communism. His adventure-filled life is palpable in these pages, including incredible feats like escaping from prison at the Peter and Paul Fortress.
