HSC History: Russia and the Soviet Union 1917-1941

HSC History: Russia and the Soviet Union 1917-1941 systematically follows the New NSW Syllabus.

The book endeavours to provide the following:

• detailed historical information about the key elements of Russia and the Soviet Union 1917-1941
• frequent reference to historiographical information which can be used to reinforce the arguments presented by students in their HSC responses
• frequent revision exercises to help students come to terms with the factual detail 
• specific advice on writing  responses to HSC style questions

It is hoped that this book will provide students with:

• solid historical information, but not too much that students will drown in an excess of the written word as can happen with some works
• enough historiographical information to supplement student arguments 
• a chance to frequently consolidate information
• some of the techniques required for writing effective essays
