"Well worth the money." This is a quote from the previous reviewer. Depends on how you look at it. Personally I think that having to fork out the sum $ 150,00 for a book of some 250 pages, a new book that is, not some rare bibliophile first edition, or a copy signed by Stalin, is a bit steep. I could even go one better and say that this price is bl**dy ridiculous, no matter how interesting the subject is!$ 150,00I!! Go sit on it, mr. Maslov!. Geez! I mean: couldn't you get some money form some corrupt superrich Russian oligarch, who then would support the arts instead of blowing all his money on some English Premier League soccer team? That would be better than robbing us poor Eastern Front afficionados. $ 150,00..tsk, honestly, I ask you.......
