Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Russia Before Dawn Hey were russians-slavs, with all the intensity, the phantasy and the harsh realism that have made the Slav what he is. With them were Russian Jews, gifted with the imagina tion, the tenacity and the organizing ability that mark their race. They were, one and all, dreamers - the Josephs of their generation! They dreamed of an Earthly Paradise! Year after year they cherished this dream - in prison, in exile, even on the scaffold itself. Many of them died for it, died under the knout and by hangman's rope, unafraid. Many spent long years in Siberian exile. Many more became outcasts and wanderers, living in poverty in Geneva, Paris or London. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dawn in Russia: Or Scenes in the Russian Revolution I have not attempted in this book to do more than describe some of the scenes which I witnessed in Russia during the winter of I905 - Igo6, while I was acting there as special correspondent for the Daily Cbrouicle. For the most part, the descriptions are given in the same words which I wrote down at the time, either for my own memory or for the news paper. But the whole has been re-arranged and rewritten, while certain scenes have been added for which a daily paper has no room. I have also inserted between the scenes a bare outline of the principal events that were happening elsewhere, so that the Significance of what I saw may be more easily understood, and the dates become something better than mere numbers.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Before the Dawn: A Story of Russian Life On the first morning of his holidays at the Lyceum, John Forsyth set out for the river, and hoarded a steamer at the quay. The frost had all vanished; the flood, now at its height, sparkled in the May sun from a million dancing facets; already the sudden green of a St. Petersburg spring had fringed both banks of the Neva. An Italian sky now overarched the northernmost capital of Europe, where nature seemed to have transformed a mere icefield dotted with habitations into a Swiss paradise with its blue and flowing Rhohne. The schoolmaster not only felt with exhilaration the metamorphosis which annually astonishes foreigners in the Russian capital; there was something in the sights and scenes around him that harmonized with his own mood.

Download or read book A Thousand Years of Russian History (Classic Reprint) written by Sonia E. Howe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Thousand Years of Russian History There are few people in England, probably, who have not read some book or article on Russia, and some aspects of the life of that country are well known to English people; yet it is not too much to say that great ignorance prevails about Russia as a whole. The thing lacking is a knowledge of history, for history alone explains the present by the past, and offers the right vantage ground from which to view the great drama in action at this time. History alone will explain, for example, why Russia is so irresistibly drawn towards Constantinople, and why so much blood has been shed in vain attempts to gain possession of the latchkey to her own front door which the Western Powers have prevented her again and again from getting into her hands. The ancient story of Oleg the Wise hanging his shield on the gate of Byzantium in 911 is a symbol of Russia's policy. A knowledge of, history will also enable the reader to understand the living bond which exists between Russians and Balkan Slavs, who are all members of the same race and of the same Church, and how this bond has always reasserted itself when the weaker brothers had reason to call upon the stronger for help against Turkish Moslems. There are also other vital points which have to be ex plained before Russia's political position can be rightly understood; for the mighty Russian Empire has not been built in a day - from a small beginning and by a number of different processes it has grown to its present dimensions.

Book Synopsis Young Folks' History of Russia (Classic Reprint) by : Nathan Haskell Dole
Download or read book Young Folks' History of Russia (Classic Reprint) written by Nathan Haskell Dole and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-10 with total page 536 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Young Folks' History of Russia It has been well said by a recent author that the aim of all the great reforms made in Russia since Peter the Great has been to undo what he did or tried to do. That struggle is still going on, and with Such throes that it sometimes seems as though the building itself must fall in ruins. The history of modern Russia is the history of a transition, and must needs be unfinished until the transition is complete. The death of an emperor or the execution of an assassin is not the end of an epoch. In a book for young people a long list of authorities may be spared; it is sufficient to state that the facts have been drawn from the best sources, - Russian, German, French, and English. In the first part Russian names have been done away with English equivalents take their places. A table follows for convenience. In all cases difficult words are avoided so far as possible, and it is hoped that this Young Folks' History of Russia is at least readable.

Download or read book Russia's Agony (Classic Reprint) written by Robert Wilton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-15 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Russia's Agony Russia has to voice her sentiment otherwise. The time for peaceful expression will come when the hostile garrison of Bolshevism and its German supporters have been driven out. What form of government mayr then be adopted by the free decision of the Russian people concerns only them selves. Three centuries ago they elected a Tsar of the Romanovs. The elements of a true democracy were embodied in the Zemsky Sobor, or Assembly of the Land. But Russia then was dominated by Byzantine tradition, and later by Ger man influence. The voice of the people was dulled by these nu-russian forces. Freed of their deadening power, Russia will assert the principles of justice and true democracy that are inherent to the Russian character. Her troubles came not from the Monarchy, but from the alien influences that the Monarchy imbibed. The German incubus will have been removed ere Russia can revive. Of that revival I perceive sure and certain promise. I believe that the Russian people were destined to play an exalted part in the advancement of mankind, and that the day will soon dawn when the peoples of the world will duly appreciate the sacrifices that the Russians have endured, not less than the services that they render to the common cause of humanity. It 13 with this confidence that I am leaving the hospitable shores of America to rejoin my Russian com rades in the great adventure of this unparalleled war - the restoration of Russia.
