Dictionary of Russian Personal Names Reviews

...marvelous browsing, not only for the pedant and know-all but also for Russophiles or anyone with a command of the Cyrillic alphabet and an interest in Russian culture or history. An invaluable reference. Edward Morgan, MultiCultural Review
...it is not just the major surname listing that makes Benson's dictionary so valuable. It is the compact, critical information that accompanies it and the supplementary reference material, including a full bibliography--that round this publication off and make this dictionary a 'must ' for Russianists. It should also be adapted for sale in Russia itself. Slavic Review

Table of Contents

Preface; 1. Reconstruction of the original cyrillic from the English transliteration; 2. Russian surnames; 3. Russian given names; Selected bibliography.
