Description:

In Russia, both rulers and ruled have long endeavoured to transform theircountry, each in their own forcible way. Their efforts never quite seemed tobring the results hoped for, and despite reform and revolution some things havechanged very little. This book sets out to relate Russian tradition andcircumstances to the events of history, and to encourage readers to seek theirown explanation of the country's paradox.For this fourth edition of Endurance and Endeavour J. N. Westwood has completelyrevised the text and bibliography, and added a new chapter covering the latestimportant and exciting developments in the history of the former SovietUnion.
