The Left in Europe Since 1789
by David Caute
World University Library. 256 pp. $2.45.
This is an examination of the entire European Left since the French Revolution of 1789. The author leaves out virtually nothing and no one. He writes deftly and manages to pack a lot of facts within a limited space.
The book deals with reformists and revolutionaries, radical democrats and socialists. The author shows great sympathy for all of the tendencies he examines.
This book will provoke considerable interest among students of socialism. For beginners, however, too much is dealt with in too little space.
The black and white and color illustrations are worth the price of the book by themselves.
