Description
Summary: | Once the hub of the tsarist state, later Brezhnev's model Communist city - home of the Kremlin, Red Square and St Basil's Cathedral - Moscow is for many the quintessence of everything Russian. Timothy Colton's biography of this city at the centre of Soviet life reveals what such a position has meant to Moscow and ultimately to Russia itself.
