"One hundred years ago events in Russia took the world by storm. In February 1917,
in the middle of World War I and following months of protest and political unrest,
Tsar Nicholas II abdicated. Later that year a new political force, the socialist Bolshevik
Party, seized power under the leadership of Vladimir Lenin. A bloody civil war and
period of extraordinary hardship for Russians finally led to the establishment of
the Soviet Union. This book accompanies a major exhibition that re-examines the Russian
Revolution in light of recent research, focusing on the experiences of ordinary Russians
living through extraordinary times. The Revolution was not a single event but a complex
process of dramatic change. The story of the Revolution is told here through posters,
maps, postcards, letters, newspapers and literature, photographs and personal accounts.
Leading experts on Russian history reveal the Revolution as a utopian project that
had traumatic consequences for people across Russia and beyond."--Provided by publisher
