When English sailors set out in 1553 seeking an easterly sea passage to China round the northern capes of Scandinavia, they made an unexpected discovery. Like Christopher Columbus and America sixty years earlier, they encountered a large, uncharted land mass barring their progress. They had not intended to 'discover' Russia; it was totally accidental and unexpected. Yet this chance encounter was to lead to not only a remarkable relationship between Britain and Russia but also the eventual involvement of thousands of British men and women in Tsarist Russia's future social, military, cultural and economic development. No other country can claim to have had such a continuous, diverse and widespread influence on Russia and its institutions as the British between the 16th and 20th centuries. This initially accidental encounter also had a profound influence on both countries' relationships with the rest of the world. It is highly probable that neither empire would have been able to progress in the way they ultimately did without this accidental relationship, Whether they came as traders or explorers, soldiers, doctors and nurses, artists, builders, politicians or spies, governesses and missionaries, the British were active right across this vast country from the Baltic to the Black Sea and from the Caucasus to Siberia. Some came as visitors, others arrived to work and raise families there. Some were fascinated by the country whilst many others loathed it, finding the Russians uncultured and extremely corrupt. A successful few made their fortunes or achieved great honours, others experienced bad luck or extreme hardship and many died there. Over the generations, a large number of Anglo-Russian families became established in Russia, often interlinked by marriage or business interests and they helped introduce the country to many aspects of traditional British life, especially the love of sport. The trauma and tragedy of the 1917 Bolshevik revolution and subsequent Russian civil war caused most of the British to leave, resulting in a sad and acrimonious end to the 360 year relationship between the two world's two largest empires. This is the fascinating story of the remarkable lives and experiences of the British in Tsarist Russia.

The conduct of the foreign relations of the Russian state in its several contexts—Kiev Rus, Muscovy, Russian Empire, Provisional Government, Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and Russian Federation—were unique in its common currents from the beginning to the present. Geography was certainly a key factor, located in the center of the world's largest land mass and surrounded by often hostile forces. “All of the Russias” had to confront the problems of open frontiers and the conduct of relations with a number of adjacent states of different ethnicity, and with many that were more distant. No other nation states had to face such complex and divergent circumstances over their histories. Most other Great Powers were neighbors of similar states in culture and historical background, whereas Russia had to deal with Asian, as well as European countries. The Historical Dictionary of Russian and Soviet Foreign Policy covers the history through a chronology, an introductory essay, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 700 cross-referenced entries on important individuals, events, and other aspects of the foreign policy of this important country. This book is an excellent access point for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Russian foreign policy.

In Defence of British India (1984) illustrates the problems arising from the British need to defend an Indian empire against the fluctuations in the European balance of power, preferably by isolating the empire from the European political system. The strategies devised by Britain to forestall and later to counter the expansion of European empires into the Middle East are known as the Great Game, which began in 1798 in response to the French invasion of Egypt. Later, the British planned an offensive in the Middle East itself as a means by which to defend their Indian empire.
