Yep, but some (if not most) books on their list are old and hard to find.Nikel wrote:This site includes an annotated bibliography on the RCW

Then, there is the opposite, nearly a 1000 pages-turner about the Revolution and the Civil War:
A People's Tragedy: Russian Revolution, 1891-1924
by Orlando Figes (Author)
For me, this is the best book to understand the Russian Revolution and the Civil War. It's extremely well written and readable. A real page turner. The equivalent of James McPherson's Battle Cry of Freedom, but on the RCW.
Historian Orlando Figes agrees to pay damages for fake reviews
Orlando Figes posted reviews on Amazon praising his own work and rubbishing that of his rivals
Another, signing herself H. Crawley, wrote: ‘Figes has not forgiven Rachel Polonsky for her investigation into his questionable sources for Natasha’s Dance, so now, in a petulant act of spite, he tries anonymously to trash her brilliant new book.’ Thank you, W. Cohen and Harriet Crawley.
Finally, Figes was on the receiving end of the kind of letter he has been sending out to publications great and small for more than a decade, to stop anyone criticising his books or saying there were problems of scholarly propriety with them. (He had the means for this legal barrage; he has made a lot of money from his books.)
