Sobre este artículo
Text is clean and unmarked in bright, tight, and intact covers. Previous owner's name is on the first page. Card holder is attached to the back of the last page of the volume which appears to have never been put in circulation. Spine is not creased. Library stamp is on the top of the text block. From the back cover, "This volume contains the substantially revised and final version of 'August 1914' in an acclaimed new translation by H. T Willetts. Against a brilliantly evoked backcloth of Russian society, it follows the army as it advances into East Prussia to face catastrophic defeat at the hands of the Germans."
Sinopsis
August 1914 is a novel by Russian novelist Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn about Imperial Russia's defeat at the Battle of Tannenberg in East Prussia. The novel was completed in 1970, first published in 1971, and an English translation was first published in 1972. The novel is an unusual blend of fiction narrative and historiography, and has given rise to extensive and often bitter controversy, both from the literary as well as from the historical point of view.
