Praise for The Battleship Potemkin

While Richard Taylor's slim volume is not the first book to be devoted exclusively to it, it is certainly the most interesting...Overall, Taylor has produced an outstanding study, comprehensive in its coverage, accessible in its analysis, fascinating in its historical detail.
