Petrified Utopia

Very good, solid account of the fascinating Russian Time of Troubles. Does an excellent job of refuting claims of early class-war and accusations of False Dimitry being a Polish shill.
It is somewhat a product of its times, early 1990's, where it spends time refuting Marxist historical interpretations that are largely ignored today anyway.
