Kerensky, a former Russian politician who served as the Prime Minister of the Russian Provisional Government in 1917. The book is a detailed account of the Kornilov Affair, a failed coup attempt by General Lavr Kornilov to overthrow the Provisional Government and establish a military dictatorship in Russia in August 1917.Kerensky, who was the Minister of War at the time of the Kornilov Affair, provides a first-hand perspective on the events leading up to the attempted coup and the actions taken by the Provisional Government to prevent it. He also offers insights into the political and social conditions in Russia at the time, including the growing influence of the Bolsheviks and the rising discontent among the Russian people.The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the political and social landscape in Russia in 1917, including the fall of the Tsarist regime and the establishment of the Provisional Government. The second part focuses on the Kornilov Affair, including the events leading up to the coup attempt, the actions taken by the Provisional Government to prevent it, and the aftermath of the failed uprising. The third part offers Kerensky's reflections on the lessons learned from the Kornilov Affair and the implications for the future of Russia.Overall, The Prelude to Bolshevism: The Kornilov Rising (1919) is an important historical document that provides a unique perspective on one of the pivotal events in the Russian Revolution.
