About This Book

The work examines a sequence of violent incidents and the subsequent Moscow trial of Social-Revolutionary figures, beginning with a murder discovered at a country dacha and unfolding amid civil unrest, foreign interventions, and shifting fronts. It reconstructs political assassinations, investigative discoveries of documents linking conspirators to external actors, and courtroom proceedings that expose organizational weaknesses within the Social-Revolutionary movement. Through reportage of speeches, arrests, and evidence, the narrative contrasts the factional, improvised character of the accused with the centralized, disciplined apparatus of their opponents, and traces how legal action, propaganda, and public opinion intersected during the contest between revolution and counterrevolution.
