The book presents the first English edition of "On Russia in the
Reign of Aleksei Mikhailovich" by Grigorii Kotoshikhin. This is the
only native source describing the character of the
seventeenth-century Russian state and society. It offers a unique
and detailed picture of the nature of Russian "autocracy", the life
at the tsar's court, social mores of the nobles and commoners of
those times, military affairs, diplomatic relations, etc. The book
is a veritable ethnographic encyclopedia of early Russian life.
With broad commentaries and supporting materials provided by the
translator, Benjamin Uroff, and the editor, Marshall Poe, it
provides an invaluable source for understanding XVII-century
Muscovite Russia.
