My Religion - Lev Nikolayeviç Tolstoy - Platanus Publishing

To one not familiar w with the Russian language the accessible data relative to the external life of Leo Ni­kolaevich Tolstoi, the author of this book, are, to say the least, not voluminous. His name does not appe­ar in that heterogeneous record of celebrities known as The Men of the Time, nor is it to be found in M. Vapereau’s comprehensive Dictionnaire des Contem­porains. And yet Count Leo Tolstoi is acknowledged by competent critics to be a man of extraordinary genius, who, certainly in one instance, has produ­ced a masterpiece of literature which will continue to rank with the great artistic productions of this age.
