Produktbeschreibung

The book opens with the tense atmosphere in Petrograd, where widespread discontent among workers, soldiers, and peasants sets the stage for revolution. Reed captures the dramatic moments of the Bolshevik uprising, particularly the storming of the Winter Palace on October 25, 1917. This pivotal event marks the overthrow of the Provisional Government and the beginning of Bolshevik control.

Reed vividly describes the chaotic scenes, the fierce resistance, and the ultimate triumph of the Bolsheviks. He follows the immediate aftermath, detailing the formation of the new Soviet government led by Lenin, and the issuance of decrees on peace, land, and workers' control.

Despite significant opposition from various factions and foreign powers, the Bolsheviks manage to consolidate their power, gaining crucial support from the working class and soldiers. Reed's narrative, though sympathetic to the Bolsheviks, remains an essential historical document, offering an immersive glimpse into the revolution that reshaped the 20th century.
