First published in 1958, Moorhead's account is regarded as one of the most succinct accounts of its subject, and now reprinted to mark the centenary of the revolution.
Moorehead has traced the course of events well and concisely. The book now being fifty years old, it may seem a little dated by the discovery of new material since then, but it is still a valuable record of that turbulent period.
For further relevant reading on the subject, we can also recommend [[The Murder of the Romanovs by Andrew Cook]]. To put the Russian revolution into the wider picture of the European conflict, [[The Great War by Peter Hart]] is worth attention, as is [[Russia: a 1000A 1,000-Year Chronicle of the Wild East by Martin Sixsmith]], a fuller history of the country.
