The Great and Terrible Year of 1918. An illustrated chronicle of the beginning of the Russian Civil War
39.99 €
"Great was the year and terrible was the year on the Nativity of Christ 1918, from the beginning of the second revolution" - with these legendary words Mikhail Bulgakov forever immortalized the beginning of the Civil War in Russia. Who became the culprit of this tragedy? This question has occupied not only professional historians, but also ordinary citizens for more than a century. Until now, the success or failure of our country in society is associated with the events of 1917 and the tragedy of the Civil War. This richly illustrated book is dedicated to the final stage of the Great Russian Revolution (October-December 17) and the first year of the Russian Civil War. The publication is illustrated with hundreds of unique photographs (many of them published for the first time), as well as caricatures of that revolutionary era, well conveying the spirit of the time and the struggle between political opponents, which grew into a full-scale Civil War. The book is published jointly with the Russian Historical Society.
