About this book
Having lived in Russia for twenty-three years, known Tolstoy personally and stayed with him at Yásnaya Polyána, Aylmer Maude wrote this life covering the novelist's first fifty years. He and his wife had translated several of Tolstoy's works, and Countess S. A. Tolstoy revised the text.
Much of the story is told in Tolstoy's own words, with Maude's explanations set in square brackets. The frontispiece is Kramskóy's portrait of Tolstoy from 1873, when he began Anna Karénina. This is the fifth edition, of 1911; the first came out in 1908.
