Empire of the Czar: A Journey Through Eternal Russia by Astolphe Custine | ||||
This is the only 19th century book describing Russia which was forbidden in Soviet Union. Normally they loved the criticism of czarist time, but somehow this book analysis was easily applied to them. I remember reading big portions of it typed on typewriter and secretly distributed through SamIzdat. Now I have it on my book-shelve and nobody cares. Still a good book. | ||||
