With the Middlesex Regiment against the Bolsheviks 1918-19
This unusual book from the First World War period. It tells of the
attempts of the British-in company with European and American
allies and the Japanese-to stem the red tide of Bolshevism in
Russia by providing military aid to the White Russian forces. These
are the experiences of the men of Middlesex
Regiment-'B-oners'-already worn out in other theatres of war and
hoping their days of campaigning were about to be over-as they rose
to an extraordinary challenge in the harshest of environments in
the Siberian winter. This is a fascinating book for those
interested in the sideshows of the Great War in which the typically
stolid 'Tommy' served-here portrayed in the most affectionate terms
by the author-who was also their Colonel. It is also a vital work
for those interested in the Russian Revolution, the Civil War and
the policies and attitudes of the involved nations as they created
the conditions for another World War and helped establish the
international balance of power for three quarters of a century.
