The Last Revolutionaries: German Communists and Their Century By Catherine Epstein
Publisher: Har vard Univ ersity Pre ss 2003 | 352 Pages | ISBN: 0674010450 | PDF | 1 MB
The Last Revolutionaries tells a story of unwavering political devotion: it follows the lives of German communists across the tumultuous twentieth century. Before 1945, German communists were political outcasts in the Weimar Republic and courageous resisters in Nazi Germany; they also suffered Stalin's Great Purges and struggled through emigration in countries hostile to communism. After World War II, they became leaders of East Germany, where they ran a dictatorial regime until they were swept out of power by the people's revolution of 1989.
