New York: Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1972 Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 1972. Solzhenitsyn's epic of World War I and the roots of the Russian Revolution. He provides a sweeping look at a society that is trapped by a disastrous war, ruled by an ineffectual tsar, and on the brink of enormous changes that will affect the entire world. Mingling actual characters--Lenin, Tsar Nicholas and his family--with fictional ones, Solznehitsyn vividly dramatizes a crucial moment in Russian history.Brodart protected..
Synopsis
August 1914 is a novel by Russian novelist Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn about Imperial Russia's defeat at the Battle of Tannenberg in East Prussia. The novel was completed in 1970, first published in 1971, and an English translation was first published in 1972. The novel is an unusual blend of fiction narrative and historiography, and has given rise to extensive and often bitter controversy, both from the literary as well as from the historical point of view.
