The Russian Bastille is a historical account of the political and social conditions in Russia during the late 19th century and early 20th century. Written by Simon Oscar Pollock, the book details the oppressive policies of the Tsarist regime and the brutal treatment of political dissidents. The title of the book is a reference to the infamous Bastille prison in France, which was a symbol of tyranny and oppression. Pollock argues that the Russian government was similarly oppressive, and that political prisoners were treated inhumanely in the country's prisons and labor camps. The book also examines the role of revolutionary movements in Russia, including the Bolsheviks and the Social Revolutionaries, and their efforts to overthrow the Tsarist regime. Overall, The Russian Bastille provides a detailed and compelling account of a tumultuous period in Russian history, and sheds light on the struggles of those who fought for freedom and democracy in the face of authoritarianism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
