Russia's Decisive Year is a historical book written by Ellery Walter, which chronicles the tumultuous events that took place in Russia during the year 1917. The book provides a detailed account of the events leading up to the fall of the Tsarist regime, the subsequent rise of the Bolsheviks, and the establishment of the Soviet Union. Walter's narrative is based on extensive research and analysis of primary sources, including letters, diaries, and official documents. He provides a comprehensive overview of the political, social, and economic conditions in Russia at the time, as well as the key players and factions that shaped the country's fate. The book is divided into three parts, each of which covers a distinct period in Russian history. The first part focuses on the February Revolution, which saw the overthrow of Tsar Nicholas II and the establishment of a provisional government. The second part covers the period between February and October, during which time the Bolsheviks gained increasing influence and power. The final part details the events of the October Revolution, in which the Bolsheviks seized control of the government and established the world's first socialist state. Throughout the book, Walter provides insightful analysis and commentary on the events he describes, offering a nuanced and complex understanding of the factors that led to Russia's decisive year. He also explores the wider implications of these events for the rest of the world, particularly in terms of the impact on international relations and the rise of communism as a global ideology. Overall, Russia's Decisive Year is a comprehensive and engaging account of one of the most important periods in Russian history, written by a leading expert in the field. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the history of Russia or the origins of the Soviet Union.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
