What I Saw in Russia

By George Lansbury

Book Overview

""What I Saw In Russia"" is a first-hand account of the author George Lansbury's visit to Soviet Russia in 1920. Lansbury was a British politician and socialist who was invited to Russia by the Soviet government to witness the progress of the Bolshevik Revolution. The book provides a detailed description of his journey from London to Moscow, his meetings with prominent Soviet leaders, and his observations of the social, economic, and political conditions in Russia at the time. Lansbury's account is critical of the Western media's portrayal of Russia and offers a different perspective on the country's revolutionary changes. The book also includes photographs taken by Lansbury during his trip. Overall, ""What I Saw In Russia"" is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the early years of the Soviet Union and the international perception of the Bolshevik Revolution.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
