Per Wikipedia Albert Rhys Williams September 28 1883 - February 27 1962 Commonly Known By His Middle Name Pronounced "Reece" Was An American Journalist Labor Organizer And Publicist. He Is Most Famous For Writing Memoirs In Favor Of The 1917 October Revolution In Russia: He Had Been Both A Witness And A Participant. Williams Worked For The 1908 Presidential Campaign Of Socialist Eugene Debs. Then Williams Returned To His Main Profession As A Minister Of The Maverick Square Congregational Church In East Boston 1908 To 1914. However He Did Not Abandon The Labor And Social Issues At All. In 1912 Williams Raised Money And Spoke Up For The Workers During The 1912 Textile Strike In Lawrence Massachusetts. Williams First Met John Reed Whose Acquaintance Played A Role In His Upcoming Interest In Russia And Then His Trip To This Far Overseas Country. Williams First Came Into Contact With The Bolsheviks In 1917 As A Correspondent For The New York Post. He Attended The Storming Of The Winter Palace Met And Became Close Friends With Vladimir Lenin And Stayed In The Country Until 1918. Upon His Return To The United States He Worked As A Pro-Soviet And Communist Activist.1 Williams Was A Vocal Opponent Of The Allied Intervention In The Russian Civil War And Deployment Of American Troops On Russian Soil Stating "I Never Ceased To Feel Shame For The Role My Country Played In This Joint Effort To Strangle Bolshevism In Its Cradle And Socialism For Good And All."2 He Eventually Volunteered For Service In The Red Army And Was Placed In Charge Of Organizing An International Legion. Williams Wrote Of This "If I Helped In Some Small Way To Mitigate The Guilt Of Being An American I Am Satisfied."3 Williams Lived On And Off In Russia First Moving There At The Outbreak Of The Russian Civil War And Last Leaving Sometime After Marrying Lucita Squier In 1923 Thereafter Only Returning To Visit In 1930 1937 And 1959.2 During His Period Of Relations With The Soviets He Authored A Number Of Related Books And Papers.3 Though Later Personally Critical Of Joseph Stalin He Refused To Publicly Criticize The Union Itself And Maintained A Pro-Soviet Stance For The Rest Of His Life.4 Before His Death Williams Wrote "If I Have Remained True To The Revolution And Still Look Forward To The Final Triumph Of Socialism In The World It Is Because Like Lenin I Do Believe In The Essential Goodness Of Man." An Odd And In Many Views A Monumentally Stupid Conclusion From Intimate And Long-Standing Knowledge Of Soviet Treatment Of Anyone Who Disagreed With The Government Program Or Criticized Its Leaders. <br/> <br/> Scott And Setzer hardcover

Manuscript "private" account contemporary to, and describing firsthand, the Grand Russian Fleet Review held from 13 to 25 August 1897 in Krasnoye Selo, by Wilfred Seymour who received a personal invitation to the event, who met and conversed with Czar Nicholas II, and who had fought against Russia in th Crimean War formerly being attached to the Coldstream Guards. 8vo. 7 pages in manuscript on two double leafs, blue paper watermarked "Joynson 1865" measuring approximately 18,5 x 23 cm, dated and initialed by the writer. Together with a manuscript letter also by Wilfred Seymour, written only a few days before, 11 August 1897, while on the steam yacht "Tighnamara" making the voyage to Saint Petersburg for the Presidential celebrations, so mentioned in the text. 8vo. Double leaf ivory paper measuring 13 x 21,5 cm, signed by the writer. Very good condition, a singular primary source "private" account with excellent content. A significant event in Russia's history, of which there is very little documentation, is preserved with remarkable firsthand details, not from a distant observer, but rather from a well-connected Englishman who had a privileged invitation by the Russian Court and who spoke with the Emperor in person during the ceremonies. The event described in these papers marks a most interesting time of Russian relations with European powers, a Franco-Russian Alliance having been established with agreements made from 1891 to 1893 though not officially announced until the conclusion of these ceremonies. At the same time, Anglo-Russian relations were tenuous, the two nations having been rivals for most of the nineteenth century especially in the Crimean War and the Great Game, and just at the time of the Imperial Fleet Review were settling into diplomacy. Within two years of this event, the two would cooperate and join others to protect their interests in China during the Boxer Rebellion. Attending the "Grand Review of Troops" held at Krasnoye Selo, Wilfred Seymour met last Emperor of Russia, Nicholas II, in person, being introduced by the Court Chamberlain. The Czar asked Seymour for his impressions of the review, and also noticed his 1854 Russian War Medal (earned for fighting against Russia in the Crimean War), remarking that at during that time they were enemies, but no longer so. Seymour was subsequently introduced to Alexandra Feodorovna, Empress of Russia as the wife of Nicholas II. He mentions a conversation with the Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovich of Russia (1878-1918), whom also asked him about Crimea. The day before meeting His Imperial Highness, several Grand Dukes and Russian officers, Seymour was present for the laying of the foundation stone for the Neva Bridge. Manuscript
