Bussow, Conrad; Orchard, G.Edward
Disturbed State of the Russian Realm, The
8vo, .xliii,[ii],244pp. + frontispiece . This translation of the memoirs of a German mercenary who lived in Russia throughout the first decade of the 17th-century, makes available a unique eye-witness account of the "Time of Troubles" (1598-1613). Conrad Bussow (1552-1617), a soldier of fortune from Lower Saxony, spent most of his career in foreign service. He arrived in Russia in 1600 and spent the next 11 years serving under a variety of rulers and rebel leaders. He witnessed many of the sensational events of that period: the triumph of the first False Dmitry and his subsequent overthrow, the Bolotnikov rebellion (his description is the most detailed provided by any contemporary observer), the civil strife and foreign intervention which bedeviled the reign of Tsar Vasily Shuisky; the Polish occupation of the Kremlin, and the beginning of the Russian struggle for national liberation. Bussow had all the instincts of an investigative reporter - most of the events he recounts are from first-hand experience - and he interviewed many of the key players. Although at one time a fairly prosperous landowner, Bussow was eventually reduced to living on the charity of his wife's relatives. He tried to recoup his fortunes by becoming an author, but died before his ambition could be realized. His authorship of this work remained largely unknown until the mid-1800s. This is the first English translation of the unabridged text of Bussow's chronicle. It is based on careful examination not only of various printed versions in early modern High German but also of several of the original manuscripts in the Herzog August Library, Wolfenbuttel. Complemented by an illuminating commentary by Edward Orchard, it should be of particular interest to those concerned with Russian and European history and the evolution of the Russian "spirit".

Pipes Richard
Degaev Affair, The: Terror and Treason in Tsarist Russia
8vo hardcover in dj 176 pages; Sergei Degaev (1857-1921), a political terrorist in tsarist Russia, disappeared after participating in the assassination of the chief of Russia's security organization in 1883. Those who later knew and admired the quietly brilliant Professor Alexander Pell at the University of South Dakota never guessed this was actually Degaev, who had triple-crossed friends and associates while entangled in the revolutionary movement of his homeland. This book is the first in any language to tell in detail the extraordinary story of one of the world's most intriguing revolutionaries, his role in building and betraying the earliest political terrorist network, and his subsequent conventional academic career in America.

Shulman Elena
Stalinism on the Frontier of Empire, Women and State Formation in the Soviet Far East (ISBN:0521896673)
8vo, cloth in dj (280 pages) fascinating account of frontier Stalinism told through the previously unexplored history of a campaign to attract female settlers to the socialist frontiers of the Soviet Far East in the late 1930s. Elena Shulman reveals the instrumental part these migrants played in the extension of Soviet state power and cultural dominion in the region. Their remarkable stories, recovered from archival letters, party documents, memoirs, press coverage and films, shed new light on Soviet women s roles in state formation, the role of frontier Stalinism in structuring gender ideals and the nature of Soviet society and Stalinism in the 1930s. Through these narratives Elena Shulman offers a nuanced picture of the world of the frontier as well as the complexities of women s lives under Stalin and the limits of Moscow s rule over the periphery and even the Gulag. Contents: .Introduction, 1. Women and Soviet power, 2. 'Where Steel Cracks Like Glass', 3. 'Our Famous Valia'. The rise of a Soviet notable, 4. 'Envy for Everything Heroic'. Women volunteering for the frontier, 5. 'Bol'shevichki Were Never Ascetics ': female morale and Communist morality, 6. Snivelers and patriots, Conclusion. BiographicalNote: Elena Shulman is an independent scholar and has taught at UC Berkeley and Texas Tech University after receiving her Ph.D. in History from UCLA in 2004

Atkinson Thomas Witlam
Oriental and Western Siberia : A Narrative of Seven Years Explorations and Adventures in Siberia, Mongolia, The Kirghis Steppes, Chinese Tartary, and Part of Central Asia
Folding map, numerous black and white engravings, xvi + 533pp + 2 adverts, index, original blind stamped cloth, slightly worn, teared on top of spine. Text and plates are clean and very bright. "Atkinson's original objective in undertaking these travels was to sketch the scenery of Siberia. He traveled on a czar's pass out of Russia's Asiatic dominions from Kokhan on the west to the eastern end of the Baikal and as far south as the Chinese town of Tchin-si; and into the immense Syan-shan chain, never before seen by any European and a great portion of the western part of the Gobi. He crossed over 39,500 miles in 7 years penetrating into areas most probably never seen by a white man. He suffered significantly, from hunger and thirst and was placed in critical situations amongst Central Asian tribes and among escaped Chinese prisoners. Atkinson produce at least 560 sketches of the scenery, executed in colours. A number are exquisitely produced in this volume and in lithographed colours as well. His book has over the years become known as one of the greatest accounts of European travel into Central and Eastern Asia".

Travels in the Regions of the Upper and Lower Amoor and the Russian Acquisitions on the Confines of India and China. With adventures among the mountain Kirghis; and the Manjours, Manyargs,Toungouz, Touzemtz, Goldi and Gelyaks Hunting and Pastoral Tribes
First US edition in VG condition, full brown original cloth with gilt lettering and design to front cover, slight shelfwear, large folding map perfect, some foxing, not affecting illustrations, 448 pages plus 4 pages of ads. original title: Travels in the regions of the Upper and Lower Amoor and the Russian acquisitions on the confines of India and China. With adventures among the mountain Kirghis; and the Manjours, Manyargs, Toungouz, Touzemtz, Goldi, and Gelyaks: the hunting and pastoral Tribes. , architect and traveller, Thomas Witlam Atkinson (1799 - 1861) and his wife Lucy, spent seven years travelling in Siberia and Central Asia during the period 1847 - 53. Their son Alatau was born during their travels at the beginning of November in 1848 in what is today Eastern Kazakhstan. Bearing in mind the conditions they were living in and the extreme cold, it is a miracle that he survived! Thomas Atkinson's first book "Oriental and Western Siberia: A Narrative of Seven Years' Explorations and Adventures in Siberia, Mongolia, The Kirghis Steppes, Chinese Tartary, and Part of Central Asia" was first published in London and New York in 1858. In the preface to this, his second book describing the travels he (and his wife and son who are invisible in his writing) gives more detail on the natural history and resources of this vast region than he gave in "Oriental and Western Siberia.". He did not confine himself to seeking only to satisfy the scientists among his readership but also discusses the possibility of British commerce in the region. "Our commerce, prodigious as are its operations, is, its is well known, capable of infinite expansion, and I have laid open a field of almost incalculable extent, where enterprise, skill, and industry are sure to find a profitable investment." He also addresses the great interest in Britain in Russian ambitions for the region: "For those of my compatriots who have been alarmed by the approaches of Russia to our Indian Empire, I have faithfully stated every step that has recently been made in this direction, and afforded them an opportunity of learning her present position on the north of the Himalaya. Her existing relations with China, now that we are engaged in a war with its government, will doubtless give increased interest to the facts I have been enabled to collect respecting the several advances she has skillfully made into Chinese territory, and the consequent extraordinary development of her own." (From the preface).

Platonov S. F.
The Time of Troubles: A Historical Study of the Internal Crises and Social Struggle in Sixteenth-And Seventeenth-Century Muscovy
8vo, 216pp. Sergei Feodorovich Platonov's Time of Troubles is a classic study of the years 1598-1613, a turbulent and decisive period in Russian history. This English translation is a valuable tool for students of the medieval as well as modern periods. Platonov, himself a tragic victim of the regimentation imposed on Soviet cultural life in the 1920s, was born in 1860 and attained immense public and professional recognition in Russia as a leading historian. In his work he synthesized, to a high degree, two major traditions of Russian historiography: the St. Petersburg school, which emphasized the collection and rigorous use of primary sources, and the Moscoe school with its socio-economic and geo-political approaches. Time of Troubles represents the finished product of a lifetime spent in research, writing and teaching. In broad terms it treats nearly a century and a half of Russian history (1500-1648); in detail it scrutinizes developments in the Muscovite State from 1598 to 1613. Some of the major issues covered in this volume are: the growing consolidation of Muscovite absolutism and the formation of a national state; the expansion of Muscovy to the west and southeast; the demise of the boyer class and the rise of the service gentry; the emergence of serfdom as the social basis of Muscovite society; the cataclysmic end of one dynasty, the House of Rurik, and the beginnings of another, the House of Romanov. For Platonov--who devoted most of his career as a scholar to the study of these dramatic years--the epoch marked nothing less than the great divide between medieval Muscovy and modern Russia, witnessing the downfall of an essentially patrimonial regime and its replacement, after fierce struggles, by a more modern state founded on a new constellation of social groups.

All the Kremlin's Men: Inside the Court of Vladimir Putin
8vo, pp. 371. It leaves a profoundly scary impression: [Putin's court is the] real House of Cards." --Lev Lurie, writer and historian All the Kremlin's Men is a gripping narrative of an accidental king and a court out of control. Based on an unprecedented series of interviews with Vladimir Putin's inner circle, this book presents a radically different view of power and politics in Russia. The image of Putin as a strongman is dissolved. In its place is a weary figurehead buffeted-if not controlled-by the men who at once advise and deceive him. The regional governors and bureaucratic leaders are immovable objects, far more powerful in their fiefdoms than the president himself. So are the gatekeepers-those officials who guard the pathways to power-on whom Putin depends as much as they rely on him. The tenuous edifice is filled with all of the intrigue and plotting of a Medici court, as enemies of the state are invented and wars begun to justify personal gains, internal rivalries, or one faction's biased advantage. A bestseller in Russia, All the Kremlin's Men is a shocking revisionist portrait of the Putin era and a dazzling reconstruction of the machinations of courtiers running riot.

Karl Schlögel
L'utopia e il terrore. Mosca 1937. Nel cuore della Russia di Stalin
8vo, br, ed, pp.834. Nel 1937 Mosca è la sede di grandiosi processi politici in cui le colpe degli accusati, del tutto inventate, vengono comunque minuziosamente analizzate. Al tempo stesso, la città vive uno stato di esaltazione. Il Commissario del popolo alterna la compilazione di liste di migliaia di dirigenti e operai da fucilare alla supervisione dei lavori della nuova metropolitana, le cui stazioni vengono inaugurate una dopo l'altra. Il Bolsoj, la piazza Rossa, le dacie in periferia, le esposizioni, ma anche i luoghi delle esecuzioni e i campi di lavoro nella zona del canale, a nord. E le vacanze estive, le strutture sportive, i cinema, le vetrine dei negozi e le feste danzanti. "Che fossero collaboratori o persino vittime, tutti si ritrovarono risucchiati, in un modo o nell'altro, nel grande movimento in cui si erano impegnati e che giunse alla sua fine solo nel 1938. La città non era altro che un enorme cantiere in continua trasformazione."

Slezkine Yuri
The House of Government: A Saga of the Russian Revolution
8vo, hardcover in dj, pp. xviii-1104, 416 b/w illus., 2 maps. On the 100th anniversary of the Russian Revolution, the epic story of an enormous apartment building where Communist true believers lived before their destruction. The House of Government is unlike any other book about the Russian Revolution and the Soviet experiment. Written in the tradition of Tolstoy s War and Peace, Grossman s Life and Fate, and Solzhenitsyn s The Gulag Archipelago, Yuri Slezkine s gripping narrative tells the true story of the residents of an enormous Moscow apartment building where top Communist officials and their families lived before they were destroyed in Stalin s purges. A vivid account of the personal and public lives of Bolshevik true believers, the book begins with their conversion to Communism and ends with their children s loss of faith and the fall of the Soviet Union.Completed in 1931, the House of Government, later known as the House on the Embankment, was located across the Moscow River from the Kremlin. The largest residential building in Europe, it combined 505 furnished apartments with public spaces that included everything from a movie theater and a library to a tennis court and a shooting range. Slezkine tells the chilling story of how the building s residents lived in their apartments and ruled the Soviet state until some eight hundred of them were evicted from the House and led, one by one, to prison or their deaths.Drawing on letters, diaries, and interviews, and featuring hundreds of rare photographs, The House of Government weaves together biography, literary criticism, architectural history, and fascinating new theories of revolutions, millennial prophecies, and reigns of terror. The result is an unforgettable human saga of a building that, like the Soviet Union itself, became a haunted house, forever disturbed by the ghosts of the disappeared.

Lewin Moshe
The Soviet Century
8vo, ix,416 pp "The USSR may no longer exist, but its history remains highly relevant-- perhaps today more so than ever. Yet it is a history which for a long time proved impossible to write, not simply due to the lack of accessible documentation, but also because it lay at the heart of an ideological confrontation which obscured the reality of the Soviet regime. In The Soviet Century, Moshe Lewin traces this history in all its complexity, drawing widely upon archive material previously unavailable. Highlighting key factors such as demography, economics, culture and political repression, Lewin guides us through the inner workings of a system which is still barely understood. In the process he overturns widely held beliefs about the USSR's leaders, the State-Party system and the Soviet bureaucracy--the "tentacled octopus" which held the real power. Departing from a simple linear history, The Soviet Century takes in all the continuities and ruptures that led, via a complex route, from the founding revolution of October 1917 to the final collapse of the late 1980s and early 1990s, passing through the Stalinist dictatorship and the impossible reforms of the Khrushchev years" - Publisher's description.
