Uncover the untold stories of resilience and struggle in 'From the Tsar's Railway to the Red Army: The Experience of Chinese Labourers.' This compelling 98-page paperback dives deep into the historical narrative of Chinese workers who ventured to Russia during World War I, drawn by the promise of work and a better life. These labourers faced the harsh realities of trench warfare, serving under extreme conditions as they dug in the mud for the armies while navigating the tumultuous landscape of revolution. Following the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917, many were caught in the chaos, some even joining the Red Army, while countless others found themselves abandoned and destitute in an unfamiliar land. This historical account sheds light on what is often considered the most tragic chapter of 400 years of Chinese emigration—a testimony to their endurance and sacrifice. Perfect for history enthusiasts and researchers alike, this book offers valuable insights into the experiences of Chinese labourers in Russia, exploring themes of displacement, struggle, and hope amid adversity. Educational and eye-opening, 'From the Tsar's Railway to the Red Army' is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersections of war, migration, and human rights.

So I’m amending my review because I’ve now bought the black (as well as the red) suit. The suit I got this time has a paper XXL large label; I want to remember the red suit having the same but now I honestly cannot remember. It came just in time for Halloween and fit almost perfectly so I feel I didn’t pay enough attention to detail. And now I don’t know what’s what? My red pants (first purchase) measure about a 36” waist; my black pants (second purchase) measure about a 42” waist. The bust on my red suit measures about 46” and the bust on my black suit measures about 48”. Having said all that, here is my original review, which I believe is about a XL (not an XXL—which I believe would probably fit a 6’4” 260lb person); I’m not changing my words, just know from here forward XXL most likely refers to an XL (I’ll update my review when I get my next suit): I bought a XXL and it fits almost perfectly. I have a 46” bust and 36” waist and normally wear a tailored 42R and 36” waist x 30” inseam pants (so I normally can’t buy a suit off the rack where the pants aren’t a parachute). The jacket could be taken in maybe a half an inch but this is for a costume; as I mentioned: I wear a 46L and be sleeves could similarly be let out a smidgen as well; the pants couldn’t have fit much better considering the mixed reviews and EXTREMELY VAGUE sizing chart—the waist could be taken in half an inch. The material is a bit thin as others mentioned but on the whole it was a great purchase and I won’t have to do anything to utilize it for my costume.
