Sobre este artículo
New York: W. W. Norton & Company. Near Fine in Very Good+ dust jacket. 2009. First Edition; First Printing. Hardcover. 0393070794 . Only slight wear to dust jacket ; A bright, solid book, dustjacket in Mylar, unclipped.; B&W Photographs; 9.30 X 6.30 X 1 inches; 304 pages; "In 1886, Alexander Ulyanov, a brilliant biology student, joined a small group of students at St. Petersburg University to plot the assassination of Russias tsar. Known as Second First March for the date of their action, this group failed disastrously in their mission, and its leaders, Alexander included, were executed. History has largely forgotten Alexander, but for the most important consequence of his execution: his younger brother, Vladimir, went on to lead the October Revolution of 1917 and head the new Soviet government under his revolutionary pseudonym Lenin. Probing the Ulyanov family archives, historian Philip Pomper uncovers Alexanders transformation from ascetic student to terrorist, and the impact his fate had on Lenin. Vividly portraying the psychological dynamics of a family that would change history, Lenins Brother is a perspective-changing glimpse into Lenins formative years and his subsequent behavior as a revolutionary. 11 black-and-white illustrations" .

Sobre Ainsworth Books
Ainsworth Books was for many years a bricks and mortar store in Vancouver, BC. When we acquired the store, we moved to a location in Delta. After three years we moved the stock home and started operation as an online, by appointment only operation. I have worked with books my whole adult life and enjoy giving recommendations.
