Description
The Red Army: A Revolutionary Defense Force Formed in the midst of civil war, the Red Army was built as the revolutionary defense force of the world's first workers' state. This book tells the story of its creation and survival through determination to defend the October Revolution. The army's ranks included some of the finest Bolshevik cadres, with Leon Trotsky at its helm as leader and organizing genius. Erich Wollenberg, a German communist who joined the Soviet army and held high command, provides an insider's account of the Red Army's battles and its eventual transformation under Stalin's leadership. Republished for the first time in 40 years, this book offers an important contribution to correcting the historical record on one of the most significant events in modern history.
