This is an example of why Osprey books need to treated with great caution. The book purports to be a source for Medieval Russian military history, yet it is full of errors, overgeneralizations, and poor analysis. This is NOT a fair assesment of the Russian realms or their armed forces in the period in question. I understand that there is only so much that can be done in this type of short format, but this is awful. I felt like I was reading college-freshman book report with a bunch of (granted, nice) images attached.
