Hard Times, Come Again No More; Conclusion; Selected Bibliography; Index; About the AuthorThis fascinating history explores one of America's earliest counterinsurgency campaigns outside the Western Hemisphere. Few remember that shortly before the end of World War I, the United States sent thousands of troops to Siberia, who remained there for a year and a half to suppress the Bolshevik Revolution. Carl J. Richard convincingly shows that the intervention ironically enabled the survival of the emerging Soviet regime and influenced subsequent Soviet-American relations. The episode also teaches valuable lessons about the extreme difficulties inherent in counterinsurgency campaigns and CounterinsurgencySoviet UnionHistorySoviet UnionHistoryAllied intervention, 1918-1920Siberia (Russia)HistoryRevolution, 1917-1921United StatesMilitary relationsSoviet UnionSoviet UnionMilitary relationsUnited StatesUnited StatesForeign relations1913-1921CounterinsurgencyHistory.947.0841Richard Carl J1180408MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817472403321When the United States invaded Russia3970330UNINA
