Lenin in Zurich

Description:

"Lenin in Zurich" chronicles Lenin's frustrating exile in Switzerland, from his arrest in Cracow and subsequent flight to Zurich at the outbreak of World War 1 to his departure for Russia in 1917 in a sealed train protected by the German government, years in which Lenin stood alone, without support from the deeply divided European Socialist movement and isolated from his fellow revolutionaries.
