"On the centenary of the Russian Revolution, Jonathan Daly and
Leonid Trofimov have reinvigorated the study of a turning point in
world history. Instead of rehashing the internal dynamics of the
Bolshevik takeover, the authors have carefully juxtaposed the
international ambitions of the Bolsheviks with the Revolution's
reception around the world. Daly and Trofimov pair their lucid
introductory essay with documents from Soviet officials,
intellectuals in South America, W. E. B. Du Bois in the United
States, and others, so readers will quickly realize how
revolutionary ideas cross oceans and transcend geopolitical
boundaries. This volume thus takes a topic once reserved for
students of Russian history and places it in a world historical
perspective; those interested in global history, European history,
and, of course, those fascinated by events in Petrograd and Moscow
will find ample sources of inspiration in this text. As the Russian
Federation is now exerting its influence on a global scale, the
time is ripe to consider the Russian Revolution in such broad
terms." -Nigel Raab, Loyola Marymount University
