For awhile now i've become increasingly intrigued with Russia. I had briefly studied a little Russian history many years ago on the Bolshevik's and the Soviet Union during World War II. But i have never seriously looked at the beginnings of Russia or the Russian empire.
Could anyone recommend any good Russian history books to me that should be available on Amazon? Im not as much interested in Russian society or culture as i am in Russia's military and political history. Altho the subject of Russian expansion east (as in the mass-movement / re-settling of Russian people in Asia) is something that interests me. But what subjects im really after are the Russian empire (including the great game period), Russia during the 1st and 2nd World War's, and the Soviet Union. In regards to the Russian empire im more interested in Russia's role in the Caucasus and in Asia than i am in Russia's connection / wars with Europe.
Thanks if anyone can recommend some good material.
