Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trailing the Bolsheviki: Twelve Thousand Miles With the Allies in Siberia One war is over and another conflict begins. Following the tracks of Thor is visible the trail of the Bolsheviki. The armistice marked only a pause in the great world cataclysm - a pause where the contest ceased only long enough for the participants to change from nations to individuals. The Treaty of Peace, while recording the close of the war between the Associated Powers and the Central Empires, is but a sign to indicate the end of the War of Nations and the beginning of the period of reconstruction. The transition is from an international conflict of governments to a world contest between reconstruction forces - between those who believe in destroying the world to rebuild it and those who desire to accept the world as it is to remodel it. The two contestants are Bolshevism, or class individualism and a league of nations, or a union of world governments. The essential difference between the two is that the former demands a revolution of action and the latter symbolizes a revelution of opinion and adjustment. For five years I have been travelling as a correspondent within and without belligerent and neutral countries in Europe, Asia, and the Americas, following the developments of the war and studying the political and industrial causes and incentives of mass action.

Book From Victoria to Vladivostok

Download or read book From Victoria to Vladivostok written by Benjamin Isitt and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2010-05-01 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking book brings to life a forgotten chapter in the history of Canada and Russia – the journey of 4,200 Canadian soldiers from Victoria to Vladivostok in 1918 to help defeat Bolshevism. Combining military and labour history with the social history of BC, Quebec, and Russia, Benjamin Isitt examines how the Siberian Expedition exacerbated tensions within Canadian society at a time when a radicalized working class, many French-Canadians, and even the soldiers themselves objected to a military adventure designed to counter the Russian Revolution. The result is a highly readable and provocative work that challenges public memory of the First World War while illuminating tensions – both in Canada and worldwide – that shaped the course of twentieth-century history.

Book When the United States Invaded Russia

Download or read book When the United States Invaded Russia written by Carl J Richard and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-06-14 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An intriguing and carefully argued entry into a small and often overlooked discussion of American political maneuvering at the end of World War I.” —Library Journal In a little-known episode at the height of World War I, President Woodrow Wilson dispatched thousands of American soldiers to Siberia. Carl J. Richard convincingly shows that Wilson’s original intent was to enable Czechs and anti-Bolshevik Russians to rebuild the Eastern Front against the Central Powers. But Wilson continued the intervention for a year and a half after the armistice in order to overthrow the Bolsheviks and to prevent the Japanese from absorbing eastern Siberia. As Wilson and the Allies failed to formulate a successful Russian policy at the Paris Peace Conference, American doughboys suffered great hardships on the bleak plains of Siberia. Richard argues that Wilson’s Siberian intervention ironically strengthened the Bolshevik regime it was intended to topple. Its tragic legacy can be found in the seeds of World War II—which began with an alliance between Germany and the Soviet Union, the two nations most aggrieved by Allied treatment after World War I—and in the Cold War, a forty-five year period in which the world held its collective breath over the possibility of nuclear annihilation. One of the earliest U.S. counterinsurgency campaigns outside the Western Hemisphere, the Siberian intervention was a harbinger of policies to come. Richard notes that it teaches invaluable lessons about the extreme difficulties inherent in interventions and about the absolute need to secure widespread support on the ground if such campaigns are to achieve success, knowledge that U.S. policymakers tragically ignored in Vietnam and have later struggled to implement in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Book William Dudley Pelley

Download or read book William Dudley Pelley written by Scott Beekman and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2005-10-17 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Dudley Pelley was one of the most important figures of the anti-Semitic radical right in the twentieth century. Best remembered as the leader of the paramilitary "Silver Shirts," Pelley was also an award-winning short story writer, Hollywood screenwriter, and religious leader. During the Depression Pelley was a notorious presence in American politics; he ran for president on a platform calling for the ghettoization of American Jews and was a defendant in a headlinegrabbing sedition trial thanks to his unwavering support for Nazi Germany. Scott Beekman offers not only a political but also an intellectual and literary biography of Pelley, greatly advancing our understanding of a figure often dismissed as a madman or charlatan. His belief system, composed of anti-Semitism, economic nostrums, racialism, neo-Theosophical channeling, and millenarian Christianity, anticipates the eclecticism of later cult personalities such as Shoko Asahara, leader of Aum Shinrikyo, and the British conspiracy theorist David Icke. By charting the course of Pelley's career, Beekman does an admirable job of placing Pelley within the history of both the anti-Semitic right and American occult movements. This exhaustively researched book is a welcome addition to the growing body of scholarship on American extremism and esoteric religions.
