WHITEWOOD PETER
The Red Army And The Great Terror: Stalin's Purge Of The Soviet Military
University Press of Kansas Lawrence: 2015. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. On June 11 1937 a closed military court ordered the execution of a group of the Soviet Union's most talented and experienced army officers including Marshal Mikhail Tukhachevskii; all were charged with participating in a Nazi plot to overthrow the regime of Joseph Stalin. There followed a massive military purge from the officer corps through the rank-and-file that many consider a major factor in the Red Army's dismal performance in confronting the German invasion of June 1941. Why take such action on the eve of a major war The most common theory has Stalin fabricating a "military conspiracy" to tighten his control over the Soviet state. In The Red Army and the Great Terror Peter Whitewood advances an entirely new explanation for Stalin's actions�an explanation with the potential to unlock the mysteries that still surround the Great Terror the surge of political repression in the late 1930s in which over one million Soviet people were imprisoned in labor camps and over 750000 executed. Framing his study within the context of Soviet civil-military relations dating back to the 1917 revolution Whitewood shows that Stalin sanctioned this attack on the Red Army not from a position of confidence and strength but from one of weakness and misperception. Here we see how Stalin's views had been poisoned by the paranoid accusations of his secret police who saw spies and supporters of the dead Tsar everywhere and who had long believed that the Red Army was vulnerable to infiltration by foreign intelligence agencies engaged in a conspiracy against the Soviet state. Recently opened Russian archives allow Whitewood to counter the accounts of Soviet defectors and conspiracy theories that have long underpinned conventional wisdom on the military purge. By broadening our view The Red Army and the Great Terror demonstrates not only why Tukhachevskii and his associates were purged in 1937 but also why tens of thousands of other officers and soldiers were discharged and arrested at the same time. With its thorough reassessment of these events the book sheds new light on the nature of power state violence and civil-military relations under the Stalinist regime. Peter Whitewood is Lecturer in History and American Studies at York St. John University in the United Kingdom. Choice Outstanding Academic Title. "In his sweeping new history of the Red Army Whitewood rejects the simplistic but popular idea that Stalin purged the military in order to consolidate his own power. Rather he sets the execution of Tukhachevskii and other officers and the the purge of the army within a long and troubled relationship between the army and the state."�Russian Review "Based on archival research and cogently argued Whitewood makes a strong case for the military purge to be the genesis of the purge of wider Soviet society"�Canadian Slavonic Papers . University Press of Kansas, Lawrence: 2015 hardcover

Wilfred Seymour - Czar Nicholas II of Russia
Manuscript "Private" Account of the Grand Russian Fleet Review Held From 13 to 25 August 1897 in Krasnoye Selo.
Manuscript "private" account contemporary to, and describing firsthand, the Grand Russian Fleet Review held from 13 to 25 August 1897 in Krasnoye Selo, by Wilfred Seymour who received a personal invitation to the event, who met and conversed with Czar Nicholas II, and who had fought against Russia in th Crimean War formerly being attached to the Coldstream Guards. 8vo. 7 pages in manuscript on two double leafs, blue paper watermarked "Joynson 1865" measuring approximately 18,5 x 23 cm, dated and initialed by the writer. Together with a manuscript letter also by Wilfred Seymour, written only a few days before, 11 August 1897, while on the steam yacht "Tighnamara" making the voyage to Saint Petersburg for the Presidential celebrations, so mentioned in the text. 8vo. Double leaf ivory paper measuring 13 x 21,5 cm, signed by the writer. Very good condition, a singular primary source "private" account with excellent content. A significant event in Russia's history, of which there is very little documentation, is preserved with remarkable firsthand details, not from a distant observer, but rather from a well-connected Englishman who had a privileged invitation by the Russian Court and who spoke with the Emperor in person during the ceremonies. The event described in these papers marks a most interesting time of Russian relations with European powers, a Franco-Russian Alliance having been established with agreements made from 1891 to 1893 though not officially announced until the conclusion of these ceremonies. At the same time, Anglo-Russian relations were tenuous, the two nations having been rivals for most of the nineteenth century especially in the Crimean War and the Great Game, and just at the time of the Imperial Fleet Review were settling into diplomacy. Within two years of this event, the two would cooperate and join others to protect their interests in China during the Boxer Rebellion. Attending the "Grand Review of Troops" held at Krasnoye Selo, Wilfred Seymour met last Emperor of Russia, Nicholas II, in person, being introduced by the Court Chamberlain. The Czar asked Seymour for his impressions of the review, and also noticed his 1854 Russian War Medal (earned for fighting against Russia in the Crimean War), remarking that at during that time they were enemies, but no longer so. Seymour was subsequently introduced to Alexandra Feodorovna, Empress of Russia as the wife of Nicholas II. He mentions a conversation with the Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovich of Russia (1878-1918), whom also asked him about Crimea. The day before meeting His Imperial Highness, several Grand Dukes and Russian officers, Seymour was present for the laying of the foundation stone for the Neva Bridge. Manuscript
