Описание: This book examines the early years of a disunited Russian-Australian community and how Australian-Soviet intelligence agencies attempted to track and influence them. While anti-Communist Russians dreamed a war of liberation would overthrow the Soviet regime, a dissident minority admired its achievements and thought of returning home.
Hugo H. Dorzel is misogynistic, xenophobic, foulmouthed, ill-tempered, oversexed, and a pathological liar. He is also the President of the United States--and the best friend the Russians have ever had in the White House. But Dorzel faces a serious reelection challenge and, despite unleashing a tsunami of disinformation about his opponent, the Russians seem unable to prevent his campaign from falling further and further behind. Cybersleuth Will Manningham discovers that someone is killing people by hacking into their pacemakers and other life-saving devices and suspects that the increasingly desperate Russians are preparing to assassinate Dorzel's rival. The president's voluptuous Russian paramour, Alexandra Parushnikova, could be the key to the mystery, but the FBI's hands are tied when they want to investigate her. Will Manningham has only a few weeks to unravel the deadly scheme before the decisive moment arrives.

Описание: When former Russian SVR Captain Anastasia "Anya" Burinkova defected to the United States, the life she imagined was far from the one she discovered. As the freedom she's longed for turns to little more than imprisonment, her deadly skill set, forged and honed behind the Iron Curtain, is the only key that can possibly unshackle her. A late-night vigilante mission under the veil of darkness turns from vendetta to entrapment in an instant. What should've been a mission to right decades-old injustices becomes a deadly encounter with federal agents determined to turn the assassin into an indentured servant. With terrifying glimpses inside the modern-day Russian Mafia in the United States, this non-stop thriller takes the reader into the hedonistic streets of Miami's South Beach, where millionaires play alongside The Bratva - The Brotherhood - of former Russian prisoners and current international criminals bent on breaking every rule to collect what they believe the world owes them. Loosely based on actual events following the fall of the Soviet Union, The Russian's Pride takes readers on a harrowing march through an underworld they likely never knew existed right under their noses. Book number one in the Avenging Angel - Seven Deadly Sins Series lures readers into the murderous foyer of the Russkaya Mafiya.

Описание: The setting for the studies collected here is the West-Eurasian steppe region, extending from present-day Kazakhstan through southern Russia, Ukraine and Moldavia to the Carpathian Basin. The first articles deal with pre-Mongol, Turkic peoples of the region and their relations with the Byzantine Empire to the south, but the core of the volume is the history of the Golden Horde and its successor states, such as the Kazan and Crimean Khanates, whose Turco-Mongol overlords are often referred to as Tatars. These played a decisive role in the history of Western Central Asia and Eastern Europe in the 13th-16th centuries and had a fundamental influence on the rise of the Russian state. Particular articles look at Mongol institutions and terminology, others at the interaction of the medieval Tatar and Russian worlds.

From former NPR Moscow correspondent Gregory Feifer comes an incisive portrait that draws on vivid personal stories to portray the forces that have shaped the Russian character for centuries-and continue to do so today.
RUSSIANS explores the seeming paradoxes of life in Russia by unraveling the nature of its people: what is it in their history, their desires, and their conception of themselves that makes them baffling to the West? Using the insights of his decade as a journalist in Russia, Feifer corrects pervasive misconceptions by showing that much of what appears inexplicable about the country is logical when seen from the inside. He gets to the heart of why the world's leading energy producer continues to exasperate many in the international community. And he makes clear why President Vladimir Putin remains popular even as the gap widens between the super-rich and the great majority of poor.
Traversing the world's largest country from the violent North Caucasus to Arctic Siberia, Feifer conducted hundreds of intimate conversations about everything from sex and vodka to Russia's complex relationship with the world. From fabulously wealthy oligarchs to the destitute elderly babushki who beg in Moscow's streets, he tells the story of a society bursting with vitality under a leadership rooted in tradition and often on the edge of collapse despite its authoritarian power.
Feifer also draws on formative experiences in Russia's past and illustrative workings of its culture to shed much-needed light on the purposely hidden functioning of its society before, during, and after communism. Woven throughout is an intimate, first-person account of his family history, from his Russian mother's coming of age among Moscow's bohemian artistic elite to his American father's harrowing vodka-fueled run-ins with the KGB.
What emerges is a rare portrait of a unique land of extremes whose forbidding geography, merciless climate, and crushing corruption has nevertheless produced some of the world's greatest art and some of its most remarkable scientific advances. RUSSIANS is an expertly observed, gripping profile of a people who will continue challenging the West for the foreseeable future.

Название: Battle for Sitka,1802 -1804, Alaskan Tlingits, Russians and Native Allies in Russian America ISBN: 1977225675 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781977225672 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 38210.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Battle for Sitka is an English translation of a Russian historian's and chief curator's well considered views on the 1802 Russian loss of their fort and allies in the Sitka area to the Tlingit Indians, with some allies, and the 1804 retaking of Sitka land by the Russians along with their mainly Alutiiq and Aleut allies. This book emphasizes the variety of armaments, battle clothing, Native outlooks, customs and personal stories. It debates the conflicting views on causes, outcomes and dates of the associated incidents. Several sly American and British trading ship, fur-and-armament-trade skippers and their crews also became quite involved in the events, and this book tries to determine which of these and others are the most accurate in their publications, handed-down stories and logs. The book's author also compares the views of other Russian, American and Tlingit historians in order to try to determine what really happened and when, in this long-running struggle for the Sitka area and trade. In addition this book shows that there was more than animosity occurring during this historic period. It was a period of intense intercontinental interaction.
