Why read it?
1 author picked Holy Russia and Christian Europe as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

A splendid work precisely because it is concise, it covers the history of this relationship from Medieval times up to the modern era.
From Victor's list on a quick introduction to Orthodox Christianity.
