"Nathans's deeply researched and meticulously argued book takes us into the drawing rooms and offices of successful Jews of St. Petersburg and greatly enhances our understanding not only of Jewish intellectual, political, and professional leadership but of Russian politics and society as well."--Richard Stites, author of "Russian Popular Culture" "The work of an extremely talented and intelligent historian.
