Hello,

I am writing a university essay on where I have to “assess the social impact of the First World War of workers in Russia and Germany” I was wondering if there was anything written on the strikes of the workers or anything in general on workers during WW1 in either Russia or Germany

Hello

I was hoping to see if I could access newspaper accounts of the immediate effects of the assassination of Franz Ferdinand in 1914. I am writing an extended essay on the events in the immediate six months following the assassination.

Thank you

Max

Dear Victoria, there are issues of ‘Balss’ from 1905 in our newspaper collection, you can search them here: http://www.theeuropeanlibrary.org/tel4/newspapers/title/3000059941444.

You may want to try the National Library of Latvia’s online newspaper portal too: http://data.lnb.lv/digitala_biblioteka/laikraksti/Balss/index.htm.

Hope it helps!

I was wondering if you have any record of a publication called
Balss from around the time of the Latvian Revolution 1905. I have a postcard sent from Riga to my grandfather in California that shows a picture of this publication – it states political literature. Any clue gratefully accepted. Thank you
