Excerpt from Russia in Revolution

November, 1905, I went to Moscow on some special business, which was to detain me six weeks, but which by a combination of circumstances extended themselves into twelve years. During this period I have travelled all over Russia and Siberia and have therefore been able to assimilate the ideas of the Russians and become fully acquainted with their country and their innermost life. It has always been a matter of interest to me in the various countries I have visited to study how the people live, as it is by this means that one is able to appreciate one's own life in the world.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, set during the Russian Revolution, draws on the author's first-hand experiences during the five days of unrest that brought down the Tsarist regime. The author had an insider's perspective, spending these turbulent days either on the streets with the rioting crowds or in his Petrograd office in the epicentre of the fighting. These unique vantage points, along with his friendships amongst key figures in the Duma and Revolutionary Committee, allow him to accurately chronicle the pivotal events of this period. He reveals the human cost, the bravery and restraint shown by the populace, and the deep-seated problems within Russian society that led to revolution. By assessing the actions and motivations of the key figures involved, he examines the country's political and social landscape, concluding that the Revolution's true significance lay in its potential to bring about a more just and equitable Russia. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
