The monumental eyewitness account of the Russian Revolution that was brilliantly recaptured in the award wining motion picture REDS.

John Reed re-creates the swift, tumultuous events of that incredible November 1917: the convening of the Congress of Soviets, the capture of the Winter Palace, the Land decree, the Peasants Congress, the clash between Bolshevics and Kerensky. He dramatically portrays the clash of men and ideas that changed the course of history.

This masterful narration by William Ratner captures all of the flavor and vitality of John Reed’s epic account.
