Alexander Rabinowitch: The Bolsheviks Survive, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Petrograd, the imperial capital and the urban stage upon which virtually the entire Russian Revolution was enacted, in 1919 struggled through a year of civil war, hunger, social upheaval, and political and economic challenges. Based on exhaustive research in previously closed Russian archives, the book presents an in depth look at how Petrograd's local Soviet government and Bolshevik party organizations struggled to implement the Bolshevik party program, fight domestic and foreign counterrevolutionaries, quiet labor unrest, and provide food, fuel, and education to the local population.
