These books deserve a place on every home bookshelf and in every student's basic library. A giant of modern literature, Tolstoy was born an aristocrat and by the age of 26 had been both a landed noble and a bloodied soldier. Disenchanted by both lives, he became a writer. The theme of this volume, excerpted from My Religion, is nonviolent resistance, a concept later embraced by Gandhi and Martin Luther King.
