A Diary of the Russian Revolution by JR. JAMES L. HOUGHTELING PAPERBACK

Anthem Press

\""When an astonishing revolution toppled the Russian autocracy early in 1917, James L. Houghteling Jr., a special attach\u00E9 to the US embassy in Russia, was one of the very few Americans present who daily recorded the striking events he witnessed and the comments he heard from both Russian and foreign observers. The diary of the thirty-three-year-old Chicago native therefore provides a rare and valuable record of dramatic developments in the streets of the wartime capital, Petrograd. It also offers unusual insights into how Russian elites and foreign diplomats, journalists, and business owners viewed the actions of soldiers, workers, and political leaders who shaped the revolution.\n\nA Diary of the Russian Revolution\n\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked services.\n\nPlease note that the price advertised is as low as we can go, we do not accept offers.\n\n\""When an astonishing revolution toppled the Ru;
