Ten Days That Shook the World

Kitap hakkında

Ten Days That Shook the World is a book by the American journalist and socialist John Reed. Here, Reed presented a firsthand account of the 1917 Russian October Revolution. Reed followed many of the most prominent Bolsheviks closely during his time in Russia. This book is a slice of intensified history—history as I saw it. It does not pretend to be anything but a detailed account of the November [October] Revolution, when the Bolsheviki, at the head of the workers and soldiers, seized the state power of Russia and placed it in the hands of the Soviets. —John Reed
