1938001249Paris: Librairie du Travail 1938. Softcover.

A special issue commemorating Lev Sedov and his death a few weeks prior to publication. He was Leon Trotsky's son and editor of the journal from July 1929 to February 1938. Though the official cause of his death was ruled as complications after an appendectomy it is believed he was murdered by agents of Stalin in Paris. Though he was a leader in his own right in the Trotskyist Movement and worked alongside his father on the journal his name was hardly mentioned in print until this current issue as a way of protection. The Bulletin of the Opposition was published alternately in Paris and Berlin from 1929 to 1941 - at irregular intervals and never exceeding 1000 copies - by Leon Trotsky who wrote the majority of the content and with contributions by various exile authors. The journal was intended "to serve the present needs of the oppositional struggle" and would ultimately number 65 issues several of them double for a total of 87 numbers and would be of various page count and size so as to make it easier to be smuggled into the Soviet Union by diplomats sailors etc. The current volume contains history of the life of Lev Sedov as well as letters of condolences received after his passing.

191917439Chicago: Deutschen Sprachgruppe der Socialist Party of the United States 1919. First American Edition. 12mo 18cm. Printed card wrappers; 127pp. Very mild external wear; faint spotting to a few pages of text; Near Fine in the original wrappers. Probable first printing in America of Trotsky's account of the October revolution. English editions appeared the same year in London and Brooklyn but it is likely that this German-language version translated from the Russian by German-American scholar Jacob Wittmer Hartmann precedes any English edition. Interestingly a German translation had already appeared in Berlin in 1918 but the German-language group of the Socialist Party commissioned this new translation from Hartmann for the American edition.

The five volumes covered his growing up and youth his life through the revolutions of 1905 and 1917 the period of the Russian Civil War his opposition to the the Stalinist Regime and his eventual expulsion from the Communist Party. This Chilean edition of his work coincided with Trotsky's arrival in Mexico which would be his second exile where he would initially live with artist Diego Rivera and his wife and fellow painter Frida Kahlo at their Blue House and would later be assassinated in 1940 by the alleged agent of Joseph Stalin Ramon Mercader.

193697388New York: Pioneer Publishers 1936. First edition of this collection of writings and speeches by Trotsky. Octavo original cloth. Presentation copy inscribed by the author on the front free endpaper in the year of publication "To Comrade Max Sterling fraternally Leon Trotsky 8/7 1936 Weksel Norway." After being exiled from the Soviet Union Trotsky lived in a number of places Norway among them. The Norwegian Labor Party which rose to power in 1935 had had previous affiliations with the Communist International and the Second International prompting Trotsky to seek and obtain a visa from Oslo. Bookplate to the front pastedown very good in a very good dust jacket. Translated by John G. Wright. With an introduction and explanatory notes by Max Shachtman. Uncommon signed and inscribed. Written in 1928 this is Trotsky's alternative to Stalin's course toward gutting the revolutionary program of the Communist International. "An international communist program is in no case the sum total of national programs or an amalgam of their common features" Trotsky wrote. "In the present epoch to a much larger extent than in the past the national orientation of the proletariat must and can flow only from a world orientation and not vice versa." Suppressed by Stalin in the Soviet Union its publication elsewhere in the world helped gather the forces that continued the fight to build a revolutionary international movement of the working class.
