Review Quotes
Andrew Roberts, author of Napoleon the Great
"This gripping book takes us right back to what it was like to have been in Petrograd (later Leningrad, later St. Petersburg) as the world-shaking revolutionary events unfolded. . . . Pinfold takes us through the extraordinary narrative almost day-by-day. One moment we’re witnessing Lenin making speeches in the snow, the next with Tsar Nicolas II as he faces execution. This is invaluable eye-witness history at its very best."
