Al Haines "Archangel: The American War with Russia" by John Cudahy is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book provides an in-depth narrative of the American military intervention in North Russia following World War I, focusing on the experiences of American soldiers and the complexities of engaging against Bolshevik forces. Cudahy aims to illuminate the motivations behind the expedition, the challenges faced by troops, and the broader historical context of America's involvement in a conflict that many viewed as controversial and poorly justified. At the start of the narrative, the author sets the stage by addressing common misconceptions about the American mission in Russia, particularly the belief that it was primarily focused on the port of Vladivostok. He contrasts the motivations and morale of American soldiers stationed in Archangel with those of their British counterparts, emphasizing the lack of clarity and purpose that plagued the expedition. As soldiers endure harsh conditions and question the reasons for fighting, the text grapples with themes of suffering, confusion, and moral dilemmas inherent in a campaign that many considered an unnecessary intervention in a foreign civil conflict. Throughout this opening section, Cudahy lays the groundwork for an exploration of the tumultuous events that transpired in North Russia, making it clear that the journey ahead will be fraught with both physical and ethical challenges for the American forces.
