The Russian Revolution

The October Revolution of 1917 has gone down in history as the only Russian Revolution that really mattered. But Lucy Worsley reveals that the earlier revolution in February 1917 was downplayed in Bolshevik history books and films, despite the fact that it was the truly spontaneous popular uprising that swept the Czar from power.
