This volume, originally published in 1990 and now with an updated
Preface, gives an account of the Allies' last concerted attempt to
destroy Russia's nascent Bolshevik regime. At the start, it looked
like a threat that should be taken seriously, as the Reds' enemies
both native and foreign combined with trained mercenaries under the
leadership of a Tsarist admiral. But it finished with a firing
squad on the ice, and a grisly end for the ill-fated Admiral
Kolchak. With him died the last hope for the old order in Russia,
and the future of the new Soviet state was secure. The skill of the
author's narrative lies in his mastery both of the detail and of
the wider implications of these epic events.
