(One story relates how Leon Trotsky, living in exile in the US, was en route back to Russia via Canada after news of the Tsar’s abdication, only to be imprisoned in Halifax, to assuage British and American fears that his return would hasten Russia’s withdrawal from the war.) Seeing Reds is publishing in hardcover; it also includes 25 archival photographs. The author also connects this story to the contemporary war on terror, in which the fear of the “other” (whether communist or Muslim) has led to official abuse of human rights.
