Description
Generally regarded as one of the world's greatest novels, this epic is a study of Russian society in the early 19th century. Tolstoy's detail and psychological insight -- before the age of Freud -- make this large book eminently readable. .Tags

I find this a valuable guide to have around as I grade essays on by students. These days, the internet is a more useful tool for searching for plagiarism but good old cliffs notes are still useful. As for the book's real use, it is a good means of interpreting and studing the novel. I always find these notes helpful for checking and verifying my own understanding as for a guick summary. They should never be used as a substitute for the actual book.
