This historic, and educational book: Narodniki Women: Russian Who Sacrificed Themselves for freedom is interesting. The history of revolutionary women, from the 1980s through 1917, has long been ignored in text and monographs on Russian history. This text introduces us to the careers of women who played a significant role in the struggle against Tsarist absolution, and paints vivid portraits of these fascinating individuals.
