Comrades by Robert Harvey

A unique narrative history of communism throughout the world.
'Harvey's historical accounts are fluid and colourful, and his analysis is succinct' -- Anna Applebaum, TELEGRAPH 20030628 'Harvey has created a whirlwind tour of the 20th century that manages to entertain as well as educate' -- The Good Book Guide 20030701 'No one makes historical narrative move with more energy and elan than Robert Harvey, who has, in addition, a highly developed sense of human interest' -- Scotsman 20030701 'Pacey ! engaging and brisk in its broad sweep' -- Daily Telegraph 20040221
Robert Harvey has been a columnist for 'The Daily Telegraph', an assistant editor for 'The Economist' and an MP serving on the House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee. His book 'Liberators: Latin America's Struggle for Independence' was described as 'an exhilarating and wildly enjoyable ride from start to finish' by Simon Sebay-Montefiore. Raymond Seitz, US ex-Ambassador to Britain said of 'A Few Bloody Noses: The American War of Independence', 'Harvey wields his pen like a sabre, slashing with gusto at the cant and received wisdom.' He lives in London and Wales.
