Title: A waste of time and money. Written in poor taste.
Review: From the beginning, the author blasts Western Europe and the Americas and tries to set a tone of an all Holy Russia during the last 1,000 years - although, the author never really defines what he means. There is only a scant record of sources used throughout the book. As someone who has studied Russian history, I view this book as full of false assumptions and even propaganda. Of course, the book does contain a few true facts about Russian history, there are too many errors and misrepresentations to count. The book might appeal to one who is discontent with the U.S. form of government or to one who has no knowledge of Russian history. As a practicing Russian Orthodox, I would not recommend this book to anyone!
