Reviews
Just how inevitable was the Red victory in the ferocious civil conflict that followed the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917? Mawdsley, an admirably levelheaded British historian, shows that despite the fractured nature and inherent weakness of the White forces, the odds were heavily stacked against the Reds. They faced foreign military intervention and a vast battleground that favored their foes.... Mawdsley skillfully boils down complex situations without oversimplifying them, and his vivid, readable account of this savage war is now the most authoritative in English.

Synopsis
In St. Petersburg on October 25, 1917, the A commanding chronicle of the three Bolshevik Party stormed the capital city and turbulent years that brought the ironfisted seized the power over the Russian Provisional Soviet regime to political power. Government, which had been operating ineffectively since the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II eight months before. That October Revolution began the Russian Civil War, which in three years would cost the largest country in the world more than seven million lives.It was an apocalyptic struggle, replete with famine and pestilence, but out of the struggle a new social order would rise: The Soviet Union. Mawdsley offers a lucid, superbly detailed account of the men and events that shaped twentieth century communist Russia. He draws upon a wide range of sources to recount the military course of the war, as well as the hardship the conflict brought to a country and its people--for the victory and the reconstruction of the state under the Soviet regime came at a painfully high economic and human price., "The best book ever written on the Russian civil war. A first-rate work of scholarly synthesis."--Robert McNeal

    Shipping took longer than I thought, but I got it okay. The packaging of the product was very good. The product was as described, altho the box that contained the figurine looked used. I'm giving seller communication five stars, but I don't know if it was the seller or just ebay itself. Either way, I was informed of where my package was

    Shipping communication/time could have been better. I had to send a message to the seller to remind him to ship my item. Also could have used a bit more bubble wrap to protect the old plastic item in the box. Attention to these details were poor IMO. Item was as described for a 30+ year old dishwasher.
