Russia is in the news. Russia makes the news. Russia IS the news, particularly with Vladimir Putin as the leader. But who is Vladimir Putin and what's the Russia that he rules? Nina Khrushcheva (great-granddaughter and look-a-like of you-know-who) and Jeffrey Taylor have asked and answered that question in their new book, "In Putin's Footsteps: Searching for the Soul of An Empire: Across Russia's Eleven Time Zones". The two take a journey across current-day Russia, beginning in the west and traveling east. They visited towns and cities and empty areas and have written a very sophisticated travel journal. surrounded by political and historical observations. (By the way, there's a map of their journey in the front of the book. It's actually not accurate as the authors visited other places not indicated on the map. The editor should check the map against the text before the book goes to press.)There are several themes to the book. One is the continued look at alterations in identity of Russian cities and people. Names of cities change on a whim as people come in and out of favor. What's the status of Vladimir Lenin? Depends on where you are in the country. While this was prevalent in the old Soviet Union, it continues to today. And while much of the book looks at "official" Russia, the authors include interviews with many of the people they meet. It's both a personal and professional account of their journey.Both Khrushcheva and Taylor are journalists. I've seen Khrushcheva on TV here, trying to explain Russia and the ex-Soviet Union. Taylor lives in Moscow with his Russian wife. Both are good writers and very good questioners and observers. And there's a lot to ask and observe in Russia. They've written a very good book which should interest armchair historians and politics junkies alike.

This is a very interesting travelogue and commentary that does a good job of presenting the whole scope of Russia, and not just the Moscow area we're familiar with - or the areas closest to Europe.I had no real concrete idea - or I knew, but it wasn't relatable - that some of the isolated cities in the far east of Russia have hundreds of thousands of residents, and the scope is huge. It's really no different than California from DC, but for some reason we have a conventional view that Russia is big and empty and of course that's not true. Also, it showed the economies that exist outside our knowledge - Russia and China share a huge border which is both conflict and some economic cooperation.It's no wonder that the Russians are more nostalgic for Stalin than Yeltsin - why wouldn't they be? We don't have memorials to Jimmy Carter (even though he tried to tell us what we needed to hear) and focus on the false promises of Reagan. It's no different - except of course Stalin was responsible for crimes against his own people. So on that score, we have a little moral high ground (some anyway).It also makes sense that in this country's vast scope, they would expect more standing for thier nation. They are bigger than the US, have more natural resources, and theoretically more future potential. So that feeling comes through, even though in the present day these citizens seem willing to subjugate themselves to the state in a way we wouldn't tolerate here (though we do that too, without much prodding).So I felt like I learned a lot about how the current Russia sees itself in the world, but also the vast scope of average life in everyday that sprawls so far. It's not "Moscow and an uninhabited stretch of Siberia," at all - it's a vast country of people with a history of major influence. That all came across in this book without feeling preached too about one opinion or another - it felt objective, dramatic, visual, and sprawling.

I love these sprawling narratives that combine travel, history, and politics. Dervla Murphy, Paul Theroux, Eric Newby come to mind, and in the case of Russia/Soviet Union, Hedrick Smith wrote the book that all others aim to equal. Jeffrey Tayler has been writing about Russia for a while now and I always enjoy his essays and books. But it's been twenty years since he wrote Siberian Dawn: A Journey Across the New Russia, and a lot has changed, much of it centered around the man who has been the Russian leader since then, Vladimir Putin.Tayler was accompanied by Nina Khrushcheva, the great-granddaughter of Nikita Khrushchev, and an academic in New York. It's an enjoyable journey (for readers, perhaps not so enjoyable for the participants who had to put up with a lot of Russian bureaucracy and indifferent customer service) that stretches across the continent, stopping to take in the sights, visit museums, do interviews, chat with locals, and muse about history.A revealing inside look at what Russians think about their leader, about their country, and about their past and future.

I debated about whether to get this because, although the subject sounded interesting to me, I thought it might be more textbookish than what I wanted. Happily, it wasn't. It's a very readable book that delves into the minds of thoughts of Russian citizens -- ordinary people like you and me. You see a different and new side of Russia from this perspective. I found it very enjoyable. I like reading about the lives of citizens of countries that are "mysterious" and usually quite different from USA life. If you fall into that camp, count this book as another to put on your reading list.
