The Russian Revolution: A Very Short Introduction | S. A. Smith

pick

Does what it says on the tin, taking us from 1917 to 1928, although the author did sometimes overwhelm me with statistics.

sophiasmithh I recently read your story and was truly impressed. Your storytelling and scene descriptions are incredible—you're very talented! I'm an artist and have loved creating since childhood. I'd love to share my work with you and maybe even create a special piece based on your story.

Interesting and informative although a bit dense at times (it read like a text book). Recommend for any history lovers.

Atomic Accidents: A History of Nuclear Meltdowns and Disasters: From the Ozark Mountains to Fukushima | James Mahaffey
