THE RUSSIAN REVOLUTION ~Vintage Book Collection~ Box picture for illustration only - NOT SUPPLIED
The Russian Revolution was a series of events in the Russian Empire in 1917
which dismantled the Tsarist autocracy and led to the eventual rise of the Soviet
Union – the world’s first state based on Marxist political philosophy. The Russian
Empire collapsed with the abdication of Emperor Nicholas II, and the old regime
was replaced by a provisional government during the first revolution of
February 1917 (March in the Gregorian calendar; the older Julian calendar was
in use in Russia at the time). In the second revolution that October, Communist
Bolsheviks under the leadership of Vladimir Lenin replaced the provisional
government, and created the Soviet Union. The royal family was put under house
arrest, but later shot and killed. The term Red October is used to
describe the events of this month. Brought
together for the first time on a unique DVD-Rom disc we are pleased to
present a rare selection of 52 rare, vintage books on the subject of
the Russian Revolution. The majority of these texts were written at the
time or in the years immediately following the events of the
revolution. A such, they provide a fascinating insight into
contemporary views and accounts of the Revolution from the time.
Includes eye-witness accounts, political commentaries and opinions on
the events, personal recollections, texts describing the background to
the revolution, its causes and significance as well as works from the
likes of major figures on the revolutionary period such as Lenin, and
Trotsky.
