Om bidragsyterne
Dr David Bullock has a PhD in European Military History specializing in the period 1870-1920. Previously an officer in the US Airforce, he now works as an historian for the Department of Defense and an Associate Professor at Colorado Technical University. He has published one book and over 60 articles on military history, travelling in over 40 countries, including Russia, to do his research. Andrei Aksenov is a well-respected Russian illustrator who has worked on a number of projects including 'Tanks of the Civil War' for Armada. This is his second book for Osprey, having previously illustrated the first volume in the Armored Units of the Russian Civil War series.
Every civil war is a tragedy for the nation involved, and Russia's tragic loss of about 13 million lives within the five years between 1917 and 1922 speaks for itself. The main instrument with which the Bolsheviks imposed communism on Russia was the Red Army, a force whose origins lay amongst the factory workers who laid down their tools and took up arms as a way of expressing their grievances against the Imperial Russian state. This title examines the armored forces that enabled the Red Army to conquer the Whites in the Civil War, including British and French vehicles and the ever-present armored trains.
