1927. The Russian Revolution was one of the great events of modern history. It was the fruit of the labors and sacrifices of thousands of Russia's noblest men and women. Preeminent among these is the figure of Catherine Breshkovsky, born Ekaterina Constantinovna Breshko-Breshkovskaya, known affectionately as Baboushka, the Dear Little Grandmother of the Russian Revolution. This work is a compilation of Madame Breshkovsky's account of her childhood and youth dictated to Dr. Cahan and the narrative of her life to her first arrest, early prison experiences and an outline of her later life which she gave to Ernest Poole.
