Tracing major social, economic, and cultural developments, as well as political and military events, the book covers Kievan, Appanage, Muscovite, Imperial, and Soviet Russian history. This new updated edition also has a chapter on the Gorbachev years from the initiation of glasnost and perestroika to the failed coup of August 1991, and an updated bibliography.
