Isaac Deutscher, the author of numerous historical and sociological studies, examines Trotsky's life through Machiavelli's dictum that "armed prophets always triumph, while the unarmed perish." He was exiled from the country where he had won.

This book is about the period following the Civil War, when Trotsky, still at the height of his fame and power, led a monumental intra-party struggle following Lenin's death. Stalin's main opponent, the only candidate to lead the Bolsheviks, a "premature" advocate of industrialization and a planned economy, a critic of the theory of "socialism in one country," and a defender of "proletarian democracy" was exiled from the country where he had won.

In the talented exposition of one of Europe's finest scholars, you will discover the political views and personal life of this outstanding publicist and orator who ignited half the world with his ideas.
