Exiled, with his family, under the Tsar, Chernov returned to Russia in 1917, after the Revolution, and in 1918, was elected chairman of the Constituent Assembly, the only democratically-conceived parliamentary body ever convened in Russia. The Assembly held one democratic session under the guns and bayonets of Red sailors before it was disbanded forever. Thus Chernov's opening speech was the last free political utterance to be heard in Russia to this day. The impact of "Cold Spring in Russia" is manifold. It tells the story of people involved in an important political movement that is now all but forgotten. We meet a variety of historical personages, form Vera Figner to Maxim Gorky, and learn hitherto unknown things about them. And we see firsthand the struggle that followed immediately upon the Bolshevik takeover of Russia.". Artikel-Nr. ABE-1595956152394
