The slaves of liberty
Without a doubt my favourite secondary source on the Russian Revolution. I read this as part of my history module for college, and I read roughly 5 other books on the Russian Revolution. Christian’s account of the history was captivating, easy to read and covered the majority of events within the time period. Anyone could pick this up and read it, if they wanted to learn about what happened. It’s not the most analytical commentary on the event, but it certainly provides the reader with a knowledge of the Russian Revolution, and I’d recommend it without hesitation.
