About the book: 2016 / At the beginning of 1917, two parallel processes were going on in Russia. The Russian elite carried out the orders of the Entente and prepared the February coup to ensure America's entry into the war. US intelligence was also active in Russia. And the people were still, latently, preparing to part with rotten tsarism. The February coup began as a special operation of the elite, but quickly acquired a nationwide scale. Since the spring of 1917, the Bolshevik movement powerfully and confidently declared itself in the country, which ordinary people believed and followed. If February was provided by the money of the Anglo-Saxons, then October is the truth with which Lenin came to Russia.
