In honor of Geroid Tanquary Robinson / ed. John Shelton Curtiss. 
New York: Columbia University Press, 1968. 345 p., hardcover 

condition: very good, a few small bruises. 

The book serves as a scholarly tribute to Geroid Tanquary Robinson, a foundational figure in American Slavic studies, the first director of Columbia University's Russian Institute, and the author of the seminal text Rural Russia under the Old Regime. The volume consists of an Introduction and twenty distinct essays authored by Robinson’s distinguished former students and academic peers. Rather than presenting a single unified narrative, the book functions as a diverse compendium spanning the timeline from late Imperial Russia through the consolidation of the Soviet regime.
