Laminate hardcover in dust jacket. New. $150. * Written at intervals between 1883 and 1909 by the pre-eminent Russian international lawyer, diplomat, arbitrator, legal scholar, and legal advisor to the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Emperor, and Government, these diaries provide a remarkable backstory to Russian foreign policy with particular reference to the two Hague peace conferences, the Portsmouth treaty negotiations ending the Russo-Japanese War, and the celebrated international arbitrations that gave him the title "Lord Chief Justice of the Civilized World." Long buried in Soviet archives and unknown to international legal scholarship, their existence was disclosed under perestroika. In 2023 the text was transcribed and published in Moscow. It is now presented here in English translation, along with extensive annotations identifying personalities, events, diplomatic undertakings and commentary on perceived successes and failures of Russian diplomacy.
