The Romanovs ruled Russia from 1613 to 1917, so it is no wonder that the overthrow of this long-lived dynasty and the events that followed evoked passionate debate. The Russian Revolution of 1917 was followed by the Russian Civil War, pitting "Red" against "White" and, ultimately, resulting in the establishment of the Soviet Union. How did people react? What did they think? This book presents documents written between July 1914 and mid-January 1918 that underscore the extraordinary richness of public discussion about key events and issues during the 1917 Russian Revolution. The documents present the views, not only of key political figures, but also of ordinary men and women.
