Researchers often ask me on the phone or through email, “What books would you suggest for historical information and research relating the Germans from Russia?” This month, I am highlighting eight books that I recommend for German-Russian introductory research. These, and others, are available at the GRHC website (www.ndsu.edu/grhc).
