This historical monograph was very long and wordy. Black takes an interesting point in history and emphasizes on uninteresting details while ignoring interesting stories that could potentially interest readers. Black does do a good job discussing the various factors that effected Russian occupation of Alaska but, I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. There are plenty of more interesting books on the same subjects out there.
