About the author

Tanel Vahisalu

"I am a Slavophile, a graphic designer, and a melomaniac from Tallinn, Estonia. For the last five years I've been working on a book that retells the complete history of Russia, simply and clearly, in less than 100 minutes. Currently based in Helsinki, Finland, I completed studying history at the University of Tartu in 2004, and have been working as a professional graphic designer ever since."
