Sunlight at Midnight
by W. Bruce Lincoln
Revolutionaries and laborers brush shoulders with tsar, builders, soldiers and statesman to illustrate the entire historical experience of the magnificient and mysterious city of St. Petersburg, revealing the natural forces that shaped the modern history of the city and the nation.
Iconography of Power
by Victoria E. Bonnell
During the Russian revolution, confronted with a semiliterate population, the Bolsheviks relied on visual propaganda to rally public enthusiasm, inculcate novel ideas, and instill loyalty. Vivid posters issued between 1918 and 1953 help us to understand how Soviet political art shaped the mentality of the Russian population. Reproduced here are 100 of these posters. 8 color plates. 92 b&w illustrations.
Voices of Collective Remembering
by James V. Wertsch
The Tsar's Last Armada
by Konstantin Pleshakov
On May 14-15, 1905, in the Tsushima Straits near Japan, an entire Russian fleet was annihilated, its ships sunk, scattered, or captured by the Japanese. It was among the top five naval battles in history, equal to those of Lepanto, Trafalgar, Jutland, and Midway. The Japanese lost only three destroyers, but the Russians lost twenty-two ships and thousands of sailors. To this day Russian ships throw wreaths on the waves when passing the Korea Strait. The Russians had traveled for nine months to be destroyed in a few hours. Because they were afraid of capture in the Suez Canal, their legendary admiral, dubbed "Mad Dog," led them on an extraordinary 18,000mile detour from the Baltic Sea, around Europe, Africa, and Asia to the Sea of Japan. They were burdened by the Tsar's incompetent leadership and the old, slow ships that he insisted be included to bulk up the fleet. Moreover, they were under constant fear of attack, and there were no friendly ports to supply coal, food, and fresh water. The level of self-sufficiency achieved by this squadron was not again attained in naval practice until the Second World War.
The Sword and the Shield
by Christopher Andrew
