This reference work surveys the leaders of Russia and the Soviet Union - from Michael Romanov to Boris Yeltsin. A total of 25 essays allow readers to look at the individuals themselves, not just their political representation. |
Synopsis: |
This reference work surveys the leaders of Russia and the Soviet Union- from Michael, the first Romanov tsar in 1613, through the creation and dissolution of the Soviet Union, to the present day President of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin. Chronologically arranged, these biographies paint a thorough yet succinct portrait of 30 leaders including discussion about the family and education of each ruler, important legislation, events, and wars under each leader's rule; and each leader's achievements and impact on Russia or the Soviet Union. |
