Editorial Review:


Masaryk was a leading campaigner for Czech independence and became the first president of Czechoslovakia. In an introduction to this book, his son, Jan Masaryk, writing at the time of the first publication in 1940, writes "My father's name has often been used as a synonym for Czechoslovakia or Democracy, and now is a symbol of a better future for my tortured compatriots...this book... is the story of a long struggle for ideas and ideals, crowned with full success, the story of perhaps the fullest life I know of. It is the story of an unflinching faith in the good in people."
