Book Description
The shadow of war that settled upon Russia's western frontier in 1914 darkened one of the most turbulent and exciting eras in Russian history. In War's Dark Shadow, W. Bruce Lincoln brilliantly tells the story of Russia's entry into the twentieth century. In a profoundly dramatic exploration, Lincoln portrays a vast empire on the eve of World War I: the relocation of hundreds of thousands of peasants from backward villages to wretched urban slums; the creation of a new class of wealthy industrialists; the swelling ranks of revolutionary terrorists; the brutal persecution of Jews in the most anti-Semitic society before Nazi Germany; and the birth of a revolutionary intelligentsia that created some of the most exciting and vibrant art Russia had ever produced. Based on voluminous first hand accounts taken from libraries and archives in St. Petersburg, Moscow, New York, London, Paris, and Helsinki, Lincoln creates a fascinating portrait of the enormous change and devastation that crushed Russian society from 1891 to 1914, making the Revolution of 1917 all but inevitable.

Very informative!!.......2005-10-18
I am Russian so I knew quite a lot about Russian history before opening this book. The book is the best guide to Russian history of the period. Here's why:
-It is written in a wonderful language - very easy to read, yet directed towards scholars.
-History is divided into chapters that concentrate on specific subjects.
-It is full of detail that other history books often lack. I was suprised to see Bruce Lincoln use original Russian words instead of finding an English equivalent for it (such as "izba," "domovoj," "dvorovoj," "lapti," etc.).
-Finally, I've not yet read a book that concentrates so much, and gives such an in-depth study, on the subjects that are usually avoided being talked about "pre-revolutionary" times (simply because they are deemed not important in the light of a warfare).
With this book you will get a clear idea of what the Russian society looked like on the dawn of WWI. Bruce Lincold actually spent several years in the Russian archives doing research (but not just for this book), so he has a first-hand knowledge on the subject.
The chapters discuss the following subjects:
Chapter 1 - 1891: The Fateful Year:
Basic overview of the situation in Russia by the yar or 1891: camine, construction of trans-Siberian railway, some politics.
Chapter 2 - In the Wake of Famine:
Famine, peasants and life in the country.
Chapter 3 - Russia's New Lords:
Emancipation, new layer of society "Kuptsi" and arts and trade associated with it.
Chapter 4 - Life in the Lower Depths:
Proletariat and life in cities and towns.
Chapter 5 - The Few Who Dared:
Revolutionaries - formation of the political parties, radicals, impact on literature.
Chapter 6 - Defenders of the Old Order:
Royal Defenders - key figures that supported the old "tzar" order; their lives and activities.
Chapter 7 - "A Small Victorious War":
The Japanese War - why, when, and how. Gives the background, as well.
Chapter 8 - 1905: The Year of Turmoil:
Revolution of 1905.
Chapter 9 - "What We Want is a Great Russia!":
Government - parties, duma, people behind the law, the lawmaking process.
Chapter 10 - "The Childre of Russia's Dreadful Years":
Art revolution.
Chapter 11 - The Last Days of Peace:
Political situation on the dawn of the WWI - foreign relations and repressions.
Chapter 12 - The Drums of War:
WWI and how it affected Russia and its people.
"What Americans Do Not Understand".......2002-05-17
I chose this title, because it was true, at least for me. As Americans, we (some of us, not all) "think" Russians are not "very intelligent", "backward" and even, "less than human."
After reading this book, I tend to "get on my soapbox" to help people understand what few choices, the Russian people ever had in the outcomes of their lives! I never knew this before purchasing and reading Mr. Lincoln's book!
If you cannot be convinced by the poverty imposed on the Russians through Mr. Lincoln's words, you will be convinced by the heart-wrenching photographs; the children who appear as hopeless, hovels designed as homes with animals living within, death from starvation was not uncommon. And all the time, Russia refused (those in power prior to the Revolution)to feed her people, wheat was being shipped to other European countries.
And the Russians never questioned the motives of the Tsar; after the Revolution, they still starved and were murdered by Stalin and Hitler.
We need to change our attitudes and this book did it for me.
Terrific !.......2002-04-22
In the forward, W. Bruce Lincoln states the book is "...an effort to explore the lives, thoughts, hopes, and dreams of the men and women who lived in the world's largest empire and to convey some sense of the tensions that tore at the fabric of their existence on the eve of the Great War and the Revolution of 1917." In this effort he succeeds brilliantly.
We see portraits of Tsar Alexander III, Nicholas II, Pobedonostsev, Lenin, Rasputin, and a host of other generals, officials and ordinary people who shaped that era.
We get an insider's look at what life was like in a peasant community, inside the peasant's izba or house, and their attitudes towards schooling, medicine and religion. We go inside the growing factories and the slums the workers inhabited in the cities with rapidly developing industry. We see the new nobility of the industrial barons, the revolutionaries fighting the tsarist autocracy, the defenders of the Old Order...all come to life in these pages.
Graphic descriptions are given of the vicious pogroms against Jews. The impact of the Trans-Siberian Railroad in both economic and a political aspects is covered. The 1904 war with Japan is there with its criminally incompetent generals and and admirals and the war's impact on the development of the Revolution of 1905 as well as the mood of the populace as the nations slides toward the Great War.
This well written, illuminating, detailed and well documented book is a classic work on the Russian society of those years and fleshes out the soul of Russia as few other books do. 16 pages of photos. Highly recommended.
thanks to bookseller julian brogi!.......2002-01-31
The book I ordered, In War's Dark Shadow, was exactly as the seller described it - in perfect condition. Since the book is not longer in print, I feel lucky to find one that looks as if it has never been used. The book was shipped promptly, and the seller was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend this seller!

Excellent History of Pre-Bolshevik Russia.......1998-05-28
"In War's Dark Shadow" is one of the best histories I have ever read. Lincoln does an excellent job of making the reader feel what each of the major participants of this extraordinary time in history felt, from the peasants (narod) and industrial workers, to the revolutionaries and conservatives, and finally to the monarchs.
No stone is left unturned in this exhaustive study of the events and the perceptions of those events that led to the downfall of the Romanovs and capitalism in 1917. Many people will be surprised to see the extent of anti-Semitism and xenophobia that permeated the society that later fought off the Nazis in World War II.
For an entirely new perspective on the Russian people, I highly recommend this work.

The Last Kings of Thule: With the Polar Eskimos, As They Face Their Destiny
ASIN: 0393051501 |
Book Description
An illustrated history of 170 years of Arctic exploration and its effects on indigenous peoples.
Ultima Thule is the terrible and yet fantastic story of European and American exploration in the polar north. Based on excerpts from the explorers' logs counterbalanced by Inuit testimony, it brings to life both sides of the clash that arose when white men arrived in the Far North, dreaming of conquest and believing that they brought with them a civilization superior to that of the indigenous peoples they found. Today, the outlook for the Inuit and the polar environment is bleak: the people and their landscape are in danger of disappearing for good. But according to Jean Malaurie, the situation is not altogether without hope.
Heavily illustrated with period photographs, engravings, artifacts, and drawings, the book gives the readers the impression of having an entire museum of North Pole history in their hands. 650 color and black-and-white photographs.
Customer Reviews:
Perfect book.......2004-11-21
This is the ultimate book on Greenland with a sensitive approach to the inuit people. Both breathtaking and informative. Respect of nature, art and people. A masterpiece.

Combining the established disciplines of pharmacokinetics (PK), the relationship between drug concentration and time, and pharmacodynamics (PD), the relationship between drug effects and concentration, this handbook examines the relevant relationship between drug effects and time. It provides a systematic overview of how PK is linked to PD, introduces the basic concepts of PK-PD modeling and presents the underlying theory behind it, and discusses the specific aspects of PK-PD modeling for various classes of drugs.
