       outline of the history of Russia. 
520    The acclaimed author of Sovietistan travels along the 
       seemingly endless Russian border and reveals the deep and 
       pervasive influence it has had across half the globe. 
520    Imperial, communist or autocratic, Russia has always been 
       a towering and intimidating neighbor.  What would it be 
       like to traverse the entirety of the Russian periphery to 
       examine its effects on those closest to her? Fatland has 
       created a book about Russia-- without ever entering Russia
       itself.  He gets to the heart of what it has meant to be 
       the neighbor of that mighty, expanding empire throughout 
       history, as readers experience the colorful, exciting, 
       tragic and often unbelievable histories of these bordering
       nations along with their cultures, their people, their 
       landscapes. -- Adapted from jacket
