They missed the nuance of Russia’s culture and empire, which set a pattern of interpretation of Russia’s actions in the world that has lasted well into the twentieth century and beyond. Starting with chapter four and continuing through the remaining chapters, the author presents an excellent survey of Russia’s history through its major chronological eras, focused always on the theme of how empire shaped the region’s development. It must be noted that this is not a complete history of Russia, and it does not attempt to be. Instead, it stresses the reality of the developing multi-ethnic empire that emerged as Russia took in more and more non-Russian territory over the centuries. The Soviet and post-Soviet sections are the most complicated. Since 1991, Russia has been one of fifteen countries formed out of the failed Soviet Union, but it inherited the foreign policy portfolio of the entire Soviet Union. Current tensions with neighboring countries, especially Ukraine, reignite the discussion of Russia as an empire during the reign of Vladimir Putin. This work was published after the first seizure of territory in 2014, but before the invasion of February 2022. Boterbloem’s study is an excellent introduction to the concept of empire in the Russian space. This book is a welcome addition to the literature on this subject for both the scholar and student.","PeriodicalId":44078,"journal":{"name":"HISTORIAN","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44713791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Readers interested in the formation of the material and the cultural dimensions of what Greer calls the “avian imperial archive” will be captivated by the book’s fascinating introduction. The chapters that follow are built around the biographies of the aforementioned men and birds, in the order I have listed them, and they examine the construction of the “scientific war hero in British military culture” (7); the formation of nineteenthcentury ideas about climate and masculinity; the role of ornithology in shaping imperial culture and notions of place; and, in the book’s fifth chapter, how the ornithological work of officers in the Mediterranean contributed to the construction of domestic ideas about “British birds” (8). In the book’s final chapter, Greer puts the pieces of her biographical approach together to examine the interplay between placemaking and imperial culture. “By paying attention to situated knowledge and place in the production of geographic knowledge,” she writes, “this book has attempted to uncover the ways in which British military ornithology produced the British Mediterranean as a militarized, moral, and zoological region for the benefit of Britain’s global empire” (97). While Greer’s analysis holds space for the “heterogeneity of experiences, networks, and cultural encounters” (102) within the British Empire, as well as for the challenges and limitations of this emphasis on “life geographies” (103), she models a generative approach for engaging the “‘more-than-human’ world” (6). In sum, Red Coats and Wild Birds is tightly argued and theoretically rich. Students and scholars interested in natural history, empire, military history, environmental history, and animal studies (in addition to the geography and history of the Mediterranean) will find much to appreciate and to think with in Greer’s book. I certainly have.","PeriodicalId":44078,"journal":{"name":"HISTORIAN","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46764624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
