        <ptr target="ukred-21782">"The magazines, when more demanding than the ""Tatler"", still belonged to the Conservative variety, such as the weekly ""Times"", the ""Spectator"" and ""Blackwood"s"", so that my impression of the winter"s most significant events - the Bolshevik November coup d"etat two months after the proclamation of the Russian Republic, and the final act at Brest Litovsk on March 2nd, 1918, following the complete collapse of the Russian armies - was inevitably onesided." </ptr>
