These are the memoirs of Petr Polovtsev, a military officer since 1897, about the events of the two Russian revolutions of 1917, February and October, and 1918. The diary contains a great deal of valuable information about the army, ethnic tensions among the soldiers, the officers views and sympathies, the Interim government and the atmosphere in the corridors of power. The memoirs were written soon after the events and reflect the mood of those days. Name index. Commentary.
