Dispatches From the Revolution Reviews

'An extraordinarily valuable compilation' -- Eric Hobsbawm
'Price was a man with an instinctive feel for politics. He was better placed than most reporters to understand the depth of popular desire for change' -- Jonathan Steele, The Guardian
'A vivid account and complimentary to Reed's masterpiece Ten Days That Shook the World ... This fascinating book is an excellent insight to the revolutionary events of 1917-18, and how they transformed a young upper-class liberal into a fervent revolutionary' -- Socialist Appeal
