An impassioned firsthand account of the Russian Revolution
An American journalist and revolutionary writer, John Reed became
a close friend of Lenin and was an eyewitness to the 1917
revolution in Russia. "Ten Days That Shook the World" is Reed's
extraordinary record of that event. Writing in the first flush of
revolutionary enthusiasm, he gives a gripping account of the events
in Petrograd in November 1917, when Lenin and the Bolsheviks
finally seized power. Containing verbatim reports both of speeches
by leaders and of the chance comments of bystanders, and set
against an idealized backdrop of soldiers, sailors, peasants, and
the proletariat uniting to throw off oppression, Reed's account is
the product of passionate involvement and remains an unsurpassed
classic of reporting.
