"By far the most perceptive, knowledgeable, and intelligent work on the last half century of imperial Russia in print."-Theodore H. Von Laue, Russian History "This important, tightly packed book . . . analyzes the basic problems of Russian imperialism thoroughly and with enormous erudition. . . . Scholars concerned with imperialism and Russian domestic and foreign problems will welcome this thought-provoking work."-David MacKenzie, American Historical Review "A convincing and important analysis of the mutual dependence of autocratic domestic and foreign politics. . . . This book ought to be the occasion for a renewed and wide discussion of Russian imperialism and should give rise to further studies of the question."-Alan Kimball, Slavic Review "This is a remarkably good book. Good in many respects-quality of research and writing, breadth of view, command of the facts, balance and penetrating in judgment, familiarity with relevant theory. . . . The book represents a revived and deepened historicism."-Paul W.
