In The Merchants of Siberia, Erika Monahan reconsiders commerce in early modern Russia by reconstructing the trading world of Siberia and the careers of merchants who traded there. She follows the histories of three merchant families from various social ranks who conducted trade in Siberia for well over a century. These include the Filat'evs, who were among Russia’s most illustrious merchant elite; the Shababins, Muslim immigrants who mastered local and long-distance trade while balancing private endeavors with service to the Russian state; and the Noritsyns, traders of more modest status who worked sometimes for themselves, sometimes for bigger merchants, and participated in the emerging Russia-China trade. Monahan demonstrates that trade was a key component of how the Muscovite state sought to assert its authority in the Siberian periphery. The state’s recognition of the benefits of commerce meant that Russian state- and empire-building in Siberia were characterized by accommodation; in this diverse borderland, instrumentality trumped ideology and the Orthodox state welcomed Central Asian merchants of Islamic faith. This reconsideration of Siberian trade invites us to rethink Russia’s place in the early modern world. The burgeoning market at Lake Yamysh, an inner-Eurasian trading post along the Irtysh River, illuminates a vibrant seventeenth-century Eurasian caravan trade even as Europe-Asia maritime trade increased. By contextualizing merchants and places of Siberian trade in the increasingly connected economies of the early modern period, Monahan argues that, commercially speaking, Russia was not the "outlier" that most twentieth-century characterizations portrayed.

Comprised of vivid and powerful portraits of the entire family, Lindsey Hughes's The Romanovs traces the history of the dynasty through Russia's imperial age. It is a classic text which examines how the Romanovs shaped the politics, society, art and philosophy of their times and led to the establishment of Russia as one of the great world powers. The book illustrates exactly what and how the family contributed to the creation and evolution of the nation, providing a unique way of understanding imperial Russia more broadly in the process. Erika Monahan has enhanced the book in this new edition with new chapters on Sophia and ruling the empire, as well as swathes of fresh material on the reigns of Alexander II and Alexander III, the peripheries of the empire, the role of the Grand Dukes and Empresses, and developments in trade and the economy.

The book has also been updated throughout to take account of recent scholarship in the field. The Romanovs is vital reading for anyone seeking to learn more about imperial Russia and the dynasty which ruled it.

Siberia has had an interesting history, quite distinct from that of Russia. Absolutely vast, containing many non-Russian nationalities, and increasingly important at present because of its huge energy reserves, Siberia was at one time part of the Mongol Empire, was settled relatively late by the Russians, and was for a long period a wild frontier zone, similar to the American West. Providing a comprehensive history of Siberia from the very earliest times to the present, this book covers every period of Siberia's history in an accessible way.
