520    1917: the year a series of rebellions toppled three 
       centuries of autocratic rule and placed a group of 
       political radicals in charge of a world power. Here, 
       suddenly, was the first modern socialist state, and#x93;a 
       kingdom more bright that any heaven had to offer". But the
       dream was short-lived, bringing in its wake seventy years 
       of conflict and instability that nearly ended in nuclear 
       war.How could such a revolution take place and what caused
       it to go so very wrong? Presenting a uniquely long view of
       events, Abraham Ascher takes readers from the seeds of 
       revolution in the 1880s right through to Stali.
