Endurance and Endeavour Review

When I was studying Russian history for my final year in High school, I used this book extensively. It is a detailed, thorough and invaluable reference tool, but in many ways it's also enjoyable and witty. I studied only 19th century Russia, but I went on to read Westwood's account of Russia in the 20th century, simply because it was so interesting. A top book for anyone!
