Preface is in Russian and English, the Table of Contents is in Russian and English and the Index is in Russian and English. The cover jacket is also in Russian and English. The rest of the book is in Russian. Everything is in color, and shows a lot of pre-Soviet Russian flag and other historical Russian flags.
