Short history of russia
Скачал в книжном магазине для айфона "short history of russia" думаю интересненько что пишут.
Первый абзац:
"this is the history of Power, and not of a People-it is because the Russian people have had no history yet. There has been no evolution of a Russian nation, but only of a vast governing system; and the words "Russian Empire" stand for a majestic world-power in which the mass of its people have no part."
написано в 1907 справедливо до сих пор.
