1.Ivan the TerribleIvan the Terrible
from Yale University Press
Price: $14.96

Customer Review:
I decided to read more about Ivan the IV after reading the Domostroi. At first I was skeptical, seeing the reviews on this site... but after reading a page in the book store I thought I would be capable of understanding the prose.
Aside from a few Russian words I didn't understand (although the... more info

from Praeger Security International General Interest-Cloth
Price: $49.95

Customer Review:
As someone who has read considerable Russian history, including military history -- and as someone who spent his years in the Reserves and Guard training for a war with the former Soviet Union -- I can say that this book is a very good introduction to a very large subject. It's a tribute to the... more info

from Osprey Publishing
Price: $10.85

Customer Review:
I cannot vouch for the historical accuracy of this book, but its content is presented in a concise and readable fashion, and it is well-endowed with excellent plates by Angus McBride. This title seems to be another humorous case of David Nicolle's habit of naming books covering a several century... more info

5.Ivan the TerribleIvan the Terrible
from Phoenix Press

Customer Review:
Troyat is a straightforward writer -- he is easy to read and his thoughts are coherently conveyed. The translator from the French is Joan Pinkham and she's done a fine job in this instance.
Here, we have a nice concise biography of Ivan the Terrible, the first ruler of Russia to lay claim to... more info

6.Ivan the TerribleIvan the Terrible
from Cooper Square Press
Price: $14.78

Customer Review:
Biographies are strange business. The author has to assemble lots of potentially disparate, even contradictory facts into something that feels like a coherent narrative; one with a logical progression of events and characters whose thoughts and motivations make some kind of sense. When the subject... more info

from Longman
Price: $26.67

Customer Review:
This provides a good overview of the reign of Ivan IV. The boyars who surrounded his throne and his activities in the Oprichnina. Sources are more than adequate for those interested in the topic. It is not as thorough as the recent biography of Elizabeth Mondraga. I would have appreciated more of an... more info

This is an interesting book. It provides a good primer on Eisenstein and Soviet Cinema, an in-depth look at the circumstances surrounding Ivan the Terrible, including a nice synopsis of the never produced Ivan the Terrible Part III, and it has a pretty fascinating analysis of the movie itself.... more info

from British Film Institute
Price: $14.95

Customer Review:
At the opening of this book Tsivian cites "Ivan the Terrible Parts I and II" as one of the most complex films ever made. by it's end, he has justified that statement. His book is a dense, incisive, and deeply insightful look at a great film. Also, it is a very fast read (I recieved and finished it... more info
