Russia and Its Crisis (Barnes & Noble Digital Library)

This edition includes a modern introduction and a list of suggested further reading.  Paul Miliukov's Russia and Its Crisis was one of the most extraordinary and prescient books ever to have emerged from pre-revolutionary Russia. Based upon a series of lectures presented at the University of Chicago and Boston's Lowell Institute in 1903 and 1904, Russia and Its Crisis laid out the case for the development of a politically liberal Russia at precisely the moment that the old autocratic order was beginning to crumble.
