Raves and Reviews

"While destination oriented visitors will gain much from this expose, students and others will find it a fine, easy method of absorbing Russian history."

"...the fascinating Traveller's History of Russia and the USSR. Since our schools teach nothing of Russian history, the book provides some valuable pre-holiday reading for anyone planning a trip to the Soviet Union."
