Contents/Summary
- Summary
- "The aim of this collection of documents is to give a picture of the policy of the Imperial German government towards the revolution in Russia. (...) The documents printed here divide into four periods: January 1915 till March 1917, from the time of the first records of Germany's interest in the revolution till its outbreak in March. The second period runs from March 1917 till the Bolshevik seizure of power. It includes the transport of the Russian revolutionaries through Germany. (...) The third period covers November and December 1917, starting with the German reactions to the Bolshevik seizure of power, and ending at the time of the failure of Radek's and Helphand's plan for a conference on neutral territory and the opening of the peace negotiations at Brest-Litovsk. (...) The two letters from Ludendorff and from Mirbach are a suitable epitaph to the German policy towards the revolution in Russia"--introduction
