This compelling never-before-published account takes the reader into Red Guard and
Red Army units, Moscow factories, workers' homes, and to the unfamiliar world of
feudal Dagestan. Worker-revolutionary Eduard Dune was seventeen when the Russian
revolution began. He joined the Bolshevik party and fought with the Moscow Red Guard
during the October revolution. Notes of a Red Guard is his candid account of what hap-
pened through 1921. Dune was demobilized shortly thereafter and became involved with
workers' opposition movements, spending the next twenty years in and out of labor
camps. At the time of his death in 1953, he was living in Paris.
Unique in that it is an uncensored account, Notes of a Red Guard offers a rare glimpse of
revolutionary Russia from the perspective of an educated, skilled worker who became a
rank-and-file participant.
