Seven myths of the Russian Revolution

Daly, Jonathan W.2023
Books, Manuscripts
The seven myths include the exaggeration of Rasputin's influence; a purported conspiracy behind the February Revolution; the treasonous Bolshevik dependence on German support; the multiple Anastasia pretenders to the royal inheritance; the antisemitic claims about 'Judeo-Bolsheviks'; distortions about America's intervention in the civil war; and the 'inevitability' of Bolshevism. In each case the authors analyse the facts, uncover the origins of the myth, and trace its later perseverance (even in contemporary Russia).
