Stockdale's book, then, could usefully work in tandem with these earlier compilations for readers interested in the longer historiography of the revolution. In that regard, the volume's essays are welcome introductions to the most influential recent analyses and debates for anyone eager to learn or teach about the Russian Revolution.
This cleverly chosen selection of recent scholarship on the Russian Revolution will provide college students with a comprehensive sense of the different perspectives on the Revolution that have emerged since the opening of the Soviet archives. It provides an excellent introduction to innovative research on topics such as the non-Russian minorities, war and violence, language and culture.
A hundred years after Red October, scholars continue to debate the meaning of those revolutionary events. Melissa Stockdale has assembled here some of the last thirty years' most dynamic work on the subject-a diverse collection of key articles from across the political spectrum.
