5.0 out of 5 stars White Siberia: The Politics of Civil War, February 7, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: White Siberia: The Politics of Civil War (Hardcover)
This is an outstanding piece of scholarship and very well written. It is required reading for anyone interested in the Russian Civil War.

Dr. Pereira explains the intricacies of the political struggles that took place amongst the anti Bolshevik groups who took part in the Civil War in Siberia. This is a complex story, but it was the determinant factor in deciding the outcome to the Civil War.

My only dissent is that Pereira is too uncritical of Kolchak and Co. If they had been less rightwing they might have held together a broad political spectrum of anti-Bolshevik fighters and won the Civil War. Pereira chooses to view Kolchak with understanding rather than critically analysis.

Still this is the best book on the Russian Civil War in Siberia, which is where the Civil War was decided. It must be read by anyone interested in this subject.
