Revival: Anglo Russian Relations 1689-1943 (1944)

by John Arthur Ransome Marriott

Overview

This book has been written by an exile deprived by a German bomb of access to all but a fragment of his own library, and to practically the whole of his carefully collected memoranda, and is also denied by circumstances the use of any great library. The book still aims to discuss Anglo Russian Relations between 1689 and 1943.
