Retreat From Glory is a historical non-fiction book written by R. H. Bruce Lockhart. The book narrates the events that led to the fall of the Russian Empire and the Bolshevik revolution of 1917. The author, who was a British diplomat in Russia during the time, provides an insider's account of the political and social turmoil that engulfed the country. Through his personal experiences and observations, Lockhart details the rise of the Bolsheviks, their takeover of the government, and the subsequent civil war that followed. He also sheds light on the personalities of the key players of the time, including Lenin, Trotsky, and Kerensky. The book is a compelling read that offers a vivid and insightful portrayal of the Russian Revolution. It also provides a unique perspective on the role of foreign powers, particularly Britain, in the events that led to the fall of the Russian Empire. Overall, Retreat From Glory is an important historical document that offers a comprehensive and engaging account of one of the most significant events of the 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
