What it's about

The Red Terror in Russia by Sergei Petrovich Melgunov is a detailed historical account of Bolshevik repression from 1918 to 1923. Drawing on documents, eyewitness reports, and official records, Melgunov exposes mass executions, arbitrary arrests, torture, and the use of fear as a political weapon during Lenin’s rule. The book highlights the Cheka’s brutality and the systematic suppression of political opponents, clergy, and civilians. Widely regarded as a pioneering work, it remains an essential source for understanding early Soviet terror.
