A richly researched work of historical scholarship, American Views of Soviet Russia 1917-1965 chronicles nearly five decades of shifting American perceptions toward the Soviet Union, tracing how public opinion, political discourse, and cultural attitudes evolved from the Bolshevik Revolution through the height of the Cold War. Filene presents a carefully curated collection of primary sources and analytical commentary that illustrates how Americans—journalists, politicians, intellectuals, and ordinary citizens—interpreted, misread, and reacted to the rise of Soviet power. The work argues that American attitudes were rarely static, shaped instead by waves of idealism, fear, disillusionment, and ideological rivalry that mirrored the turbulent arc of U.S.-Soviet relations. Written with academic rigor yet accessible in tone, it offers an invaluable lens through which to understand how foreign policy perceptions are constructed and contested within a democratic society. Scholars of American history, Cold War studies, and U.S. foreign relations will find this an indispensable primary resource.
