This is the first volume of a twovolume text that focuses on three main topics: the struggle for and against political authority, the expansion and contraction of Russia and its dealings with nonRussian nationalities and foreign powers, and the life and culture of the Russian people. This approach contributes to the book's stress on the continuities in Russian history from its beginnings to the mid 1990's. The text provides a balanced and comprehensive coverage of political, economic, social, cultural, and intellectual history.Distinctions A twovolume format, with the material on Late Imperial Russia appearing in both volumes. Incorporates the latest scholarly findings and briefly mentions scholarly controversies.
