Of particular interest is the section "The Great Revolution" (chronicle, February—September)—a detailed description of the events by days, from the abdication of the Tsar to the arrest of Kornilov, Denikin, Markov and other generals (Kornilov rebellion). With full-page photographs of members of the Provisional Government. Rare calendar+poet library provenance.
