Summary

 A highly acclaimed chronicler of riveting nonfiction, New York Times best-selling author Neal Bascomb has scored hits with Higher and The Perfect Mile.

In Red Mutiny, he turns his attention to the legendary uprising aboard the Russian battleship Potemkin in 1905. After they are served rancid meat, 600 sailors rebel. Their violent struggle against oppression and hopelessness comes to symbolize the core ideals of the Russian Revolution.

Critic reviews

"Neither pro-red nor pro-white, Bascomb is pro-objectivity in this original rendering of the renowned revolt." ( Booklist)

This interesting history flows as well as any well crafted novel. I had not read much about this important part of Russian history and the painful struggles of its people which continue to this day. When will their people be truly free? Essential book, excellent.

This is a well-read and very well written narrative history of an iconic revolutionary moment. It brings the events to life in a compelling and vivid way - containing much pathos and realism amidst the unfolding drama. Highly recommend for a captivating listen and discovery of the facts behind the propaganda - obscured story.

Gripping narrative history.
