«The Russian Revolution: A Very Short Introduction» is the historical essay by S. A. Smith, published by Oxford in paperback (192 pages, in English).
The book covers Soviet Russia between 1917 and 1936: the impact of the revolution on classes, ethnicities, the army, men, women and young people, and the shift from one system of domination to another. It frames politics within economic, social and cultural changes and sees the revolution as the product of a backward society that sought to modernize and ended in tyranny.
Volume 63 of the Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press (2002), with bibliographic references and an index.
For readers interested in history who want a brief, accessible first approach to the Russian Revolution.
