Why did the imperial Russian government fail to prevent revolution in 1917? Were its security policies flawed? This broadly researched study of Russia's security police investigates the government's efforts to maintain order as it struggled against political opposition and threats of violence during the last decade before the Revolution. Historian Jonathan Daly brings to life the men who, often with reformist intentions, took on the task of defending Russia against political dissent and revolution from within.

#EarwormOfTheDay OK, the brain is a day early, but 'Once Upon a December' from ANASTASIA. (This is the Broadway version.)

Early training in 80s films made me love a music box-based leitmotif. And it's a bit Christmassy, isn't it.
