Who Overthrew the Tsar? The Hard Truth About February 1917
14.99 €
Neither by the social and quantitative composition of the participants in those events, nor by the political goals, nor by the scale of what happened, what happened in Petrograd in February 1917 can in any way be considered a people's revolution. In reality, it was a "palace coup" organized by the leaders of the political elite of the Russian Empire. I.L. Solonevich, a well-known publicist, a participant in the White Guard movement, who managed to escape from the GULAG abroad in 1934, is sure of this.
Exposing the mechanisms of the "palace coup", the author first of all refutes the myth of the English intrigues that led to it, and does not spare either the left-wing utopian theorists, or the right-wing traitors, or the incompetent "generals from the chancellery" who purged the army of honest and loyal military men at the beginning of the First World War. The author warns: “The truth about February will be a hard truth” - and tells “how Russia was destroyed from both the right and the left and how things actually stood.”
