Russia Its Past And Present Paperback Book by Bernard Pares Mentor Books 1953

Few writers have been as well qualified to give an accurate, undistorted picture of Russia, the Russian people and Russian history as Sir Bernard Pares. 

For many years Professor of Russian Language, Literature and History at the University of Liverpool and then at London, Director of the School of Slavonic Studies and one of the editors of the Slavonic Review, he was long associated with Russia and with Russian studies. 

He spent the latter years of his life in America, where he lived and lectured at Cornell University, the Universities of Washington, Syracuse, Toronto, Kansas and Wisconsin, The New School, Sarah Lawrence and elsewhere.
