A concise study of the Russian Revolution from Longman’s Seminar Studies in History series. Anthony Wood surveys the background to revolution, the upheavals of 1905, the events of 1917, the Bolshevik seizure and consolidation of power, and the Civil War and its consequences.

Designed as an accessible historical introduction, the book combines narrative analysis with documentary material and remains a useful compact overview of the political and social forces that transformed imperial Russia into the early Soviet state.
