Blurb: “The saga of Russia —its land, its people, and its evolution from a wild and primitive giant into a formidably organized world power —is brilliantly narrated in this widely acclaimed survey of 2,000 years of Russian history.
Exploring the vast reaches of the Russian landscape, probing deeply into the paradoxical character of its peoples, weighing the creative and destructive impact of its rulers and their ideologies, A History of Russia unfolds the signal events that woke Russia from a sleep of centuries and roused her to world leadership in the mid-twentieth century.
Revised and updated to include the changing social, cultural, political, and religious trends of recent times, this modern classic remains " an admirable
survey of Russian history...a real survey, not a textbook in disguise."
