Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution: The Remarkable True Story of the American Capitalists Who Financed the Russian Communists

Antony C. Sutton

Overview

This investigative history maps the covert financial channels that linked leading New York banks and corporations to the nascent Bolshevik regime. Drawing on declassified State Department cables, corporate archives and banking records, Sutton reconstructs the loans, technology transfers and logistical support supplied between 1917 and 1930. The study shows how Wall Street interests benefited from post-revolutionary bond issues, mining concessions and armaments trade while shaping early U.S. diplomatic recognition. Detailed appendices list shareholders, board interlocks and transaction dates, offering researchers a data-driven window into the intersection of capital and ideology.
