| Friends or Foes? The United States and Soviet Russia, 1921–1941. By Norman E. Saul. (Lawrence: University Press of Kansas, 2006. xx, 434 pp. $40.00, ISBN 0-7006-1448-6.)

| Norman E. Saul's Friends or Foes? is a worthy successor to the previous three volumes in his ongoing study of American-Russian relations (Distant Friends, 1991; Concord and Conflict, 1996; and War and Revolution, 2001). The bibliography is both exhaustive and exhausting. I count 170-some archival collections consulted, coast to coast in the United States and a handful in Moscow as well—not only that, but in the preface Saul worries about those sources that never made it into archives (p. xi)! That Professor Saul has completed these volumes in five-year increments attests to his remarkably steady work in both research and writing. |
