Review
Russia & Beyond is a marvelous introduction to the glowing tapestry of Eurasian culture in the former Soviet Union. The artistic photographic essay is interlaced with a romantic text filled with fascinating information on historic and contemporary life across this region. Its 128 pages of beautiful color photography showcase the culture, the people, and the architecture of a dynamic landscape. Russia & Beyond also features detailed maps and a kind of moving guide through the eleven time zones of Russia and the new republics. Russia & Beyond is highly recommended as a perfect armchair traveller's trip through one of the most dynamic cultural landscapes of the Eurasian continent. -- Midwest Book Review
