A Raw Youth ... This samovar-table book compiled from material in the Central Lenin Museum in Moscow is chock full of wonderful color as well as black and white plates, facsimiles of party documents, and photographs, with uniformly high-quality reproductions. A student of the art of agitation and propaganda should begin with perusal of this volume and then of the revolutionary posters. Journalists consider it a milestone of the genre. The book was produced "not for sale," but for distribution at the New York World's fair and was aimed at a western audience. Our copy was a gift from John H. Langley, former Director of the Regents Press of Kansas.
