"Nestor Makhno in the Russian Civil War" by Michael Malet
Macmillan Press | 1985 | ISBN: 0333259696 9780333259696 | 129 pages | PDF | 7 MB

This book has three main aims: to place Makhno, and the movement he led historically where they belong - in the context of a civil war and a conflict of ideas, neither of which is finished. Withthis in mind, the book has been divided schematically, so that the many questions only indirectly connected with military events can be adequately discussed and easily referred to. In this the work is complementary to that of Palij, which seeks primarily to place Makhno and the Makhno movement in their Ukranian context.

It is very much the author's hope that his work will be of interest with academic and left-wing political circles.

It will be clear from the book that the author has some sympathy with Makhno and his ideals, but he trusts that this has not led to gross distortion or untruth.
