Shaking the World: Revolutionary Journalism

John Reed, an American born in 1887, was perhaps the greatest revolutionary journalist ever. His Ten Days that Shook the World is one of the best accounts of the Russian Revolution. This new volume of his writings demonstrates the breadth of his work: from msss strikes in the American cornfields to revolution in the haciendas of Mexico, from the horrors of the First World War to the storming of the Winter Palace, John Reed was there to tell the stories of those fighting back.
