Cambridge University Press, 2005
The ultimate reference book of the Russian language
As a speaker of several languages I tend to collect these sort of grammar text books. I have textbooks of Russian written in German for example - and very good they are given that for a substantial part of the German population it had been a compulsory language and a whole host of quality text were published to that end. However, in the couple of decades I have been studying languages this is ...

Modern Russian: An Advanced Grammar Course (Russian Studies) (Russian Studies) 3 reviews
Derek Offord
Duckworth Publishing, 1994
Overpriced, but an Excellent Reference
This book was given to me by a friend, and I'm glad I didn't have to pay for it. The price would be more reasonable if it were cut in half. I first started reading this book in Januaray or February of 1998, when I was living in Ufa, the largely Muslim capital of the Bashkirian province in southern Russia. At that time I spoke the language reasonably well, and I hadn't studied grammar in depth ...

Journeys to a Graveyard examines the descriptions provided by eight Russian writers of journeys made to western European countries between 1697 and 1880. The descriptions reveal the mentality and preoccupations of the Russian social and intellectual elites during this period. The travellers' perceptions of western European countries are treated here as an ambivalent response to a civilization with which Russia was belatedly coming into close ...
