About This Book

A reporter's eyewitness chronicle of the 1905–1906 upheavals presents on-the-spot reportage and rearranged documentary scenes of strikes, mass demonstrations, mutinies, assassinations, and political petitions, tracing how industrial unrest, peasant agitation, and emerging political societies forced concessions and repression. It combines descriptions of workers' lives, housing, wages, and militia clashes with accounts of political meetings, press activity, and the role of moderate and radical leaders, while interleaving a timeline of principal events and illustrations drawn from cartoons and photographs to convey everyday conditions and moments of violence and hope during the revolutionary winter.
