I agree with Boke's assessment, save for his consistent misspelling of "empiricism".

It is rare that one can use words like `gripping' for abstruse texts such as this, but I could not find another word in the English language that more accurately describes it. I await the sequel with bated breath.

5.0 out of 5 stars A masterpiece of empericism., May 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Foreign Descriptions of Muscovy: An Analytic Bibliography of Primary and Secondary Sources (Hardcover)

For years, the name Poe has been synonomous with the highest level of scholarship in early Modern Russian studies. In this monograph, he has once again reasserted his dominance in the field, while simultaneously demonstrating the precise empericism on which he has founded his impressive career. The current manuscipt will doubtlessly serve as the standard by which all future accounts of the early Modern Russian era will be compared and judged.
