Description
1955 Cassell trade paperback, R. W. Postgate (The Bolshevik Theory). A rich newsheet carries the reader through the year 1848 on the Continent, in Britain and America, by offering the important choice and representative items of history that occurred from January 1 to December 31. Mr. Postgate follows the year month by month, from the Ten-Hours' Act in January in England to The Gold Rush in December in California. His reports take up tragedies and frivolities, he carefuly follows the wave of revolutions on the Continent with the supplement of the English Chartists, and still gaily provides with tales of the ""silly season"". - Kirkus Review
