Oh, please!,
By Victoria (Honolulu, Hawaii) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Russia: An Illustrated History (Illustrated Histories (Hippocrene)) (Hardcover)
I thought this wouold be a good introductory book but this is awful. Author is beyond condecending, portraying all the Russians as bunch of ignorant oafs, intent only on drinking. All the rulers, according to him, were interested only in orgies, drinking, eating and acting like complete fools. After reading this book, readers will have to wonder how Russia became one of the superpowers of the world and why aren't Russians still living in the caves.
