Rip van Winkle is an amiable man whose home and farm suffer from his lazy neglect; a familiar figure about the village, he is loved by all except his wife.

Its demise in Europe and its decline elsewhere have produced the most profound political changes of the last few decades.

Tracing the story of Communism from its nineteenth-century roots, the book shows how the political movement Karl Marx described as a `spectre haunting Europe` expanded throughout the world during the twentieth century, and how the principles and precepts of this revolutionary system...
