Stop by the 3rd floor of the CGIS South building this Wednesday to browse an array of books on Russian and Soviet history. The books are in both English and Russian, among other languages, and cover both the imperial period, the 1917 Revolution, the Soviet period, and some on the post-Soviet period.

Emeritus Professor Richard Pipes was a member of the Harvard faculty from 1950 until his retirement in 1996, and was involved with the Davis Center throughout his career. He is the author of numerous major works on Russian history, including The Unknown Lenin in 1996, Russia Under the Bolshevik Regime, and The Russian Revolution. He chaired the CIA's "Team B" during that competitive analysis exercise in 1976, and was the head of the East European and Soviet desk at the National Security Council under President Ronald Reagan.
