This landmark anthology, edited by the distinguished historian Robert V. Daniels, assembles a rich collection of primary sources, eyewitness accounts, and scholarly interpretations that together chronicle the dramatic collapse of Tsarist Russia and the Bolshevik seizure of power. The volume presents the revolution not as a single, inevitable event, but as a contested and chaotic struggle shaped by ideology, war, and the ambitions of towering figures such as Lenin, Trotsky, and Kerensky.\n\nDrawing on Daniels' authoritative expertise in Soviet history, the collection illustrates the deep fault lines — social, economic, and political — that made revolutionary upheaval both possible and devastating. His editorial framework guides readers through competing historical interpretations, from liberal and Menshevik perspectives to Bolshevik triumphalism, revealing the ideological battles that outlasted the revolution itself. A seminal work in Cold War-era scholarship, The Russian Revolution remains indispensable reading for anyone seeking to understand how a single year of turmoil permanently altered the course of the twentieth century.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130702504155,"sku":"2026200010552-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/6747bba6-8ccd-4a91-b973-12358ded8899.png?v=1786588921","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200010552-secondhand-the-russian-revolution","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
