Journal de Russie (April 22-June 19, 1917), by Albert Thomas, an unpublished document edited by I. Sinanoglou. Of the many Western socialist missions to Russia in spring 1917 that of Albert Thomas stands out as the most important. He combined extensive experience in the international socialist movement with a passionate zeal for the Allied cause. Endowed by his government with extraordinary powers to determine French policy in the new Russia, Thomas had also to convince the more sceptical Russian socialists that the cause of European socialism and democracy and the defence of revolutionary Russia's newly-won liberty could be promoted only by a vigorous military effort against the Central Powers. In his Russian diary, Thomas records his intimate contacts with the leaders of the Provisional Government and the Petrograd soviet. He attempted, without success, to convince his governement that the Allies would have to accept the revision of their war aims and participate in an international socialist conference in order to win revolutionary Russia to the cause of the Entente.
