Description
8vo, cloth,in dj 432pp. in perfect condition. As the Russian state began to encroach on the autonomy of its peasantry in the sixteenth century, a new form of serfdom emerged: military servitude. In this book, Hellie argues that the rise of the Muscovite state was inextricably linked to the creation of a centralized, militarized order that relied on the mobilization of peasantry in service of the state. The book will be of interest to historians of Russian history, military historians, and Russian and Eurasian historians
