Not bad, but still...
I have bought this book with a huge interest. I went it through. I was focused only on Poland and Imperial Russia. It is sad that the author does not know history of Poland and wrote on p. 99 that "Poland in 1914- present day existed as the Duchy of Warsaw in the Russia Empire". Well I am afraid that it is true or rather had been but in 1814 not in 1914...

Well I am afraid that it is true or rather had been but in 1814 not in 1914 !!! Also I have never heard that Ukrainians were called Little Russians?! (page 105-106), but perhaps it is like that since I am not an American. I am still going through the suggestions reading and addresses. That Part I believe is ok. So if you really want to find some records about your greatgrandapa, buy it! |
