Editorial Reviews

A chronology of the year 1990 in the USSR is of greater rather than lesser importance in view of the subsequent collapse of the Soviet empire. This second volume in what was intended to be an annual chronology of developments in and relating to the Soviet Union brings together a wealth of detailed information, organized on a day-by-day basis. Entries for a given day are arranged roughly in descending order of importance, and headlines are used for each entry to facilitate locating information. Published in cooperation with Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
