Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 In 1916, Arno Dosch-Fleurot, a seasoned journalist working for a popular US daily, had arrived in Petrograd fresh from a gruelling stint covering the Battle of Verdun. He was excited to be in Russia, but he had preconceived ideas about Russia that were based on reading Dostoievsky's Crime and Punishment, Tolstoy's Resurrection, and George Kennon's Darkest Siberia.
#2 There were many foreign journalists in Petrograd just before the revolution. The reports of these reporters were being syndicated in the West, and there was an established coterie of other, mainly British, reporters in the city.
#3 The British colony in Petrograd was doing relief work with the thousands of refugees pouring into the city.
#4 The sight of so many pitiful children with insufficient clothing and often no shoes had galvanized a surge of expatriate philanthropic work. The British embassy was used to sort donated clothes and shoes for the refugees.
