add to cart close window

The article highlights the works of Max Levien, the Soviet Union's Communist who has been one of the leaders in the establishment of Bolshevist government in Munich, Germany. Of the other Bolshevist leaders, perhaps the two most interesting were Erich Muehsam and Gustav Landauer, both journalists. These men recently attended the meeting of the Workmen's, Peasants' and Soldiers' Council. Moreover, other conservatives were counting upon the peasants to save the day for Bavaria, Germany. There was Herr Gandorfer, a man of striking personality and obvious force and power, who was the leader of the peasants in the Soviet, in which body he often spoke out in opposition to the views of the extremists.
