Editorial Reviews

From this impressive array of material a very useful handbook has emerged. Perhaps the most significant contribution is the insight afforded into the working of Russian autocracy on its economic side, especially during the seventeenth century. The conditions of life and the methods of production and distribution in Russia differed from those prevailing in western Europe.
