Seeing Red Today in Russia

London, Eyre & Spottiswoode, [1930]. First Edition. Publisher’s red cloth bright, spine ends softened, mild toning to top edge otherwise clean and tight. Unclipped jacket is slightly fragile with loss to spine ends and at hinges with attendant tearing and creasing, smaller chips to edges and toning at spine. A critical account of an increasingly authoritarian Russia in the late 1920s by the hard scrabble adventurer and sometime angler, Negley Farson. Contains 24 vivid colour plates of Soviet anti-imperialist propaganda. Vanishingly scarce in its dust jacket.
