History of Slavonic languages

[ewb2 at CORNELL.EDU]

I don't know of a completely enjoyable introduction to the history of
the whole Sl. language group, although the article in the Encyclopaedia
Britannica is far from bad. For Russian specifically, there is an engagingly
written little book:
The Russian language; a brief history [by]
G. O. Vinokur. Translated by Mary A. Forsyth, edited by James Forsyth.
                 Cambridge [Eng.] University Press, 1971.
                 x, 146 p. maps. 22 cm.
Best wishes,
