Various landmarks, e.g. powerlines, archaeological sites, windmills, churches & lighthouses are shown & additional graphics indicate natural terrain features such as cliffs, scree, mud & vegetation variations.

Raskolnikov, a destitute & desperate former student, wanders through the slums of St Petersburg & commits a random murder without remorse or regret. He imagines himself to be a great man, a Napoleon: acting for a higher purpose beyond conventional moral law. But as he embarks on a dangerous game of cat & mouse with a suspicious police investigator, Raskolnikov is pursued by the growing voice of his conscience & finds the noose of his own guilt tightening around his neck. Only Sonya, a downtrodden prostitute, can offer the chance of redemption. ...

A towering classic of Russian literature, Fyodor Dostoevsky`s Crime & Punishment is a compelling story of a brutal double murder & its aftermath. An impoverished ex-student, Rodion Raskolnikov, kills a pawnbroker & her sister, apparently for financial gain. But as he encounters friends & family, strangers & adversaries, Raskolnikov is compelled to face the true forces that have led him to murder. His struggle with himself & those around him becomes a battle of the individual against society, radicalism against tradition, & ultimately the will of man against the mysteries of divine providence. A sensation in its day, Crime & Punishment has left an indelible stamp on the world of literature. This beautiful Macmillan Collector`s Library edition of Crime & Punishment is translated from the Russian by Constance Garnett, with an afterword by Oliver Francis. Designed to appeal to the booklover, the Macmillan Collector`s Library is a series of beautiful special gift editions of much loved classic titles. Macmillan Collector`s Library are books to love & treasure. ...

The only hope for redemption, if Rashkolnikov can but recognise it, lies in the virtuous & faithful Sonya. The Vintage Classic Russians Series: Published for the 100th anniversary of the 1917 Russian Revolution, these are must-have, beautifully designed editions of six epic masterpieces that have survived controversy, censorship & suppression to influence decades of thought & artistic expression. ...

Orlando Figes` ” Crimea” is a powerful history of the Crimean War, the conflict that dominated the nineteenth century. The Crimean War one of the fiercest battles in Russia`s history, killing nearly a million men & completely redrawing the map of Europe. Pitting the Tsar`s empire against an alliance of Britain, France & the Ottoman Empire, it was the first conflict to use photography, the telegraph & newspapers; a war over territory, from the Balkans to the Persian Gulf; a war of religion, driven by a fervent, populistbelief by the Tsar & his ministers that it was Russia`s task to rule all Orthodox Christians & control the Holy Land; it was the original `total war`. Orlando Figes` vivid new book reinterprets this extraordinary conflict. Bringing to life ordinary soldiers in snow-filled trenches, surgeons on the battlefield & the haunted, fanatical figure of Tsar Nicholas himself, ” Crimea” tells the human story of a tragic war. ” Lucid, well-written, alive & sensitive, it tells us why this neglected conflict & its forgotten victims deserve our remembrance”. (Oliver Bullough, ” Independent”). ” Figes paints a vivid portrait of a bloody & pointless conflict.. .he knows more about Russia than any other historian”. (Max Hastings, ” Sunday Times”). ”A fine, stirring account”. (Mark Bostridge, ” Financial Times”). ”A wonderful subject, on every level, & with Orlando Figes it has found the historian worthy of its width & depth”. (Norman Stone, ” Standpoint”). ” Figes is a first-class historian, as his splendid new book amply demonstrates”. (Dominic Sandbrook, ” Daily Telegraph”). Orlando Figes is Professor of History at Birkbeck College, University of London. He is the author of ” Peasant Russia”, ” Civil War”, ”A People`s Tragedy”, ” Natasha`s Dance”, ” The Whisperers” & ” Just Send Me Word”. His books have been translated into over twenty languages. ...
