A Good Read,
This review is from: Major Problems in the History of Imperial Russia (Issues in World Politics Series) (Paperback)
I am currently taking a class by Professor Cracraft and used this book. It was a good read because it was an easy read. It was not confusing in any way and professor Cracraft's introductions to the essays were knowledgable. The material convered Russian history from Peter the Great to the fall of Nicholas II. The reader is a good tool in learning about the times and the monarchs themselves as well as their policies. Well worth the money!

extremely boring,
This review is from: Major Problems in the History of Imperial Russia (Issues in World Politics Series) (Paperback)
In my opinion, the read is sooo painfully boring. Honestly, I had to read Riasanovsky's textbook in conjunction with this one and Riasanovsky's is so much easier to read and understand. This textbook, sort of has all kinds of different exerts and all of them boring, almost as if that was Craft's criteria to publish them in this textbook. Every single time I began to read this textbook, I found myself asleep. It became my sleeping pill, as it, sure, does beat insomnia.
