Description: The Russians. by Hedrick Smith. 1976. 527 pages. 6 1/4 by 9 1/2 inches. "This is not the synthetic Russia of the Kremlinologists, but Russia, face-to-face, the texture of life as Russians live it. Few reporters have had the stamina and the ingenuity to penetrate the Soviets' natural xenophobia and to see the Russians as they see themselves. Hedrick Smith won the Pulitzer Prize for doing just that. for three years, 1971-1974, as Moscow Bureau Chief for the New York Times, he listened and probed and painstakingly pieced together an amazing jigsaw puzzle of facts, manners, and anecdotes that present a Russia that the West have never perceived before." - excerpt off the front jacket flap. Sample contents:* The Privileged Class* Consumers* Corruption* Private Life* Rural Life* Industrial Life* The Party* Patriotism* Intellectual Life* Religion* Dissent* Convergence: Are they becoming more like us?
