Summary:

"Tirado provides a fascinating and valuable account of the beginnings of an organized youth movement in revolutionary Russia and the founding of the Komsomol. Forming organizations to protect and advance group interests was one of the most striking features of the Russian Revolution of 1917; youth did not lag behind. . . . This volume is a valuable contribution to the history of the Russian Revolution and early Soviet state." Russian Review
