Abstract
For nearly 85 years, historians have pondered and debated the causes of the collapse of the Russian Empire in 1917 and the emergence of a full‐fledged Bolshevik regime shortly thereafter. While they have recognized that the immense pressures of war were instrumental in fomenting the unrest that led to revolution, they had been unable to document their conclusions with genuine archival evidence. Posadskii's work begins to fill that archival vacuum. By examining and analyzing a plethora of archival materials from Saratov province, the author provides keen insights as to why the Russian population acted as it did in this turbulent revolutionary era.
