Tal,

I have a copy of this book.

It deals with all sorts of Russian awards - starting from ancient times - middle ages - to the modern Russian Federation.

There's a section on Soviet awards as well, not detailed one - if you have several other reference books - this book will not provide much of new info.

What's interesting about this book - it explores on the subject of honors and titles of Russian society, especially during Imperial times.

There are also sections devoted to uniforms and insugnia with fair amount of illustrations (both color and B&W).

For the price I paid for this book - under $10 - it's a fair deal.

BTW, there's another edition out there - with completely different cover.

Best,
William
