"The revolution is being prepared by idealists, by fanatics, and its fruits are being used by scoundrels," Bismarck said. Unfortunately, history has repeatedly confirmed the correctness of this thesis. After all, on the one hand, the revolution breeds heroism and self-sacrifice, on the other - betrayal and power, violence and cruelty. Not all revolutionaries deserve the title of "pre-shy; educator of the world" and their mission. Paradoxically, many revolutionaries changed "exactly the opposite" after becoming lords. This book is about geniuses and "villains", adventurers and romantics of the revolution, who wanted to create a new world and a new man, but, as we know & hellip; "The road to hell is paved with good intentions."
