Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kellogg Durland (1881-1911) was an American social worker and writer born in New York City. In 1901 he worked for four months as a coal miner in Scotland to study mining conditions at first-hand, publishing Among the Fife Miners in 1904. From 1904-05 he became an assistant at University Settlement, New York, and went on to give lectures on events and conditions in Russia after spending a year in that country gathering information. His book The Red Reign: The True Story of an Adventurous Year in Russia was published in 1908. Copiously illustrated with photographs throughout, many taken by the author himself, the book provides an in-depth analysis of the conditions Durland witnessed at first-hand during his lengthy stay in Russia at a time of increasing civil unrest prior to WWI and the Bolshevik Revolution. He was also the author of Royal Romances of To-day (1911) telling the stories of the courtship and marriage of Alexandra, wife of Tsar Nicholas II, Queen Elena of Italy, and Queen Victoria Eugenie of Spain. In November 1911 Durland committed suicide by taking cyanide of potassium.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Red Reign: The True Story of an Adventurous Year in Russia Importance of movement called Russian revolution - Its varied as peets - Inevitableness of revolution in Russia - Causes - The dis ease Of autocracy - Insincerity of manifesto of October, 1905, seen in gradual withdrawal of constitutional rights then guaran teed - Elements of disintegration in Russian state - Ninety per cent. Of Russian people now oppose existing regime - Startling record of kibed and wounded in 1906 - Compared to French Ter ror - Length of Russian struggle compared to other revolutions in history - Author's qualifications for present undertaking Varied experience among Cossacks, terrorists and peasants. The Russian revolution is one of the vital issues of the world today. The political revolt, presenting, as it does, so many unique and dramatic developments, tends to distract the attention of the world from the broader, deeper, and certainly not less important, phases of the movement which are found in the social and eco nomic upheaval. The working out of these forces political, social, economic - in one stupendous move ment, constitutes one of the great revolutions of history. Revolution implies absolute change. Thether civil war, or intense parliamentary struggle, or both, is the method of accomplishment, is of small consequence. The ulti mate outcome is the Same. The present movement of the Russian people toward a changed condition of life is but the manifestation of underlying forces of history and destiny to which all nations must yield. Revolution in Russia during the first quarter of the twentieth century is as inevitable as the bursting of a Pelee or a Vesuvius.

Stolen from her during the battle in Bregon, her blood Affinity rests with Sorsha Farrald, a dangerous Affinite who is on the run, headed straight to Cyrilia and to Ana's aunt...the Empress Morganya. Though she is weakened, Ana's course remains true--yet her return to her homeland reveals a Cyrilia on the brink of collapse. Morganya's tyrannical rule has transformed into a sinister quest for unquestioned authority, and she has set her sights far beyond Cyrilia. Morganya seeks a legendary ancient power, rumored to have once belonged to the Deities themselves. If she can locate it, she can rule the world.

Ana faces enemies at every turn, and every day without her Affinity brings her closer to death. Yet she is determined to liberate her people and vanquish the legacy of her own imperial bloodline--the inequality sewn into the fabric of her land. Her only hope lies in the navy she recruited in Bregon, the courage of her band of friends, and the cunning crime-lord-turned-captain she's fallen for. If Ana loses this fight, it will be her last. And Morganya's reign of darkness with consume the world.
