My Book

Revolutionist veteran and ex-militaryman Karl Ränni, who was also V. I. Lenin's personal telegraphist, is now a 90-year-old man who writes a book about his life. Life events took the young man from Estonia to Kronstadt, among the revolutionary sailors who took part in the attack to the Winter Palace. After the victory of the October Revolution, Ränni worked as a personal telegraphist with Lenin. There is a lot to recall.
