I'm from Russia and I was struggling with finding a book in English with proper Russian recipies, until I got Culinaria. The book is great, the recipies are real ones (not adapted), the book has a lot of colourful photos.
Another advantage of the book is that it also has georgian, armenian, azerbaijan and ukrainian recipies - these cuisines are very popular in Russia nd I'm glad that now I have their recipies as well.

I bought this book from a Russian vendor at a special vendor night at the US Embassy in Moscow, Russia. I was hesitant at first, but as soon as I opened the book I discovered it was filled with many colorful photos, detailed descriptions , recipes, maps, scenery, indexes, etc. (ALL IN ENGLISH!) Every page of the book has color photos. This book would be suitable for a coffee table book, for tourists, or just to learn about the culture, history, and foods in Russia and it's neighboring countries. I'm very satisfied with this purchase.

I have all the books from Culinaria and just bought this Russia one...
Its a dream, looking in this book, you find yourself back on a dining table somewhere in Russia with all the good foods, all the rich traditions and wonderful culture of that country...
You learn how those people live in the cold winters and warm summers..
This book is more then a book, its a trip in history, traditions and looking at all the beautiful pictures make you hungry and before you know it, you are cooking and eating all those goodies, the recipes are easy to follow.

Very cool book for fans of Russian cuisine, or for those interested in learning about Russian food. Well organized, and cool pictures.

This book has great colorful illustrations, description of the four major cuisines and a variety of very easy and useful recipes.

It is a very good source on the topic. The book has great illustrations, too. I haven't seen anything as good as this book in English.

An amazing book with loots of good recipes and nice pictures. Unlike many other cook books the food on the pictures look like real food. The book also has other nice information about Russia and the nearby areas which add value to it. A very nice book with great value. Highly recommended.
