Title: The Collected Works of John Reed
First published: 1995
Description: Jack Reed was a reporter, adventurer, bohemian. And a quintessential New American. Never a conformist, he was willing to take the world as it came to him, gave due consideration to all comers, and was the very image of what 1910 thought of as The Modern Man. His exploits were conducted with minimal preparation but astounding amounts of nerve and abandon, pure willpower. In his Collected Works we have three non-fiction books: Reed's first journey into revolution and survival below the Rio Grande, called "Insurgent Mexico" … the picaresque adventures in the Balkans he called "The War In Eastern Europe" .. and the major opus, "Ten Days That Shook The World", which chronicles his extended involvement with the 1917 revolution in Russia.
