Description
No one "has yet improved on de Custine's insights into the Russian character and the Byzantine nature of the Russian political system. Indeed, to understand the contemporary [American-Russian] relationship, in all its complex historical and cultural nuance, one needs to read only two books, de Tocqueville's Democracy in America and de Custine's Journey for Our Time." - Zbigniew Brzezinski
"The rediscovery of Custine is an outstanding event both in the world of letters and of politics. His book, which I have no hesitation calling a classic, combines the grace and sensitivity of Sterne's Sentimental Journey with Orwell's prophetic insight." - Arthur Koestler
