I am an American, but I have two Russian sister-in-laws and two half Russian nieces. So I was pretty excited to read Fort Ross. Having no previous knowledge of any kind of Russian history (besides things like the Romanov's from the movie Anastasia) I found this book to be highly educational while entertaining. A feat few books can ever accomplish.Dimitry was a well fleshed out character and his adventure back in time was well executed. I find that sometimes books that hop back and forth between timelines to be very confusing. Not so with this one.  I think the fact that the author took the time to make the people from the past SOUND like the people from the past made all the difference.Highly recommend to anyone looking for an historical fiction book with just the right touch of sci-fi.
