Description
Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution by Antony C. Sutton explores the little-known connections between Russian communists and US capitalists. Sutton examines the role of Morgan banking executives in funneling illicit Bolshevik gold into the US, the co-option of the American Red Cross by powerful Wall Street forces, and the intervention by Wall Street sources to free the Marxist revolutionary Leon Trotsky. This book reveals the secret sponsoring of Communism by leading businessmen who publicly championed free enterprise, and the deals made by major corporations to capture the huge Russian market before the US recognized the Soviet regime.
