Description

Ukraine's complex history is revealed in this authoritative book, tracing the nation's story from the Viking era to the current conflict with Russia. Serhii Plokhy, a Harvard Professor and acclaimed author, explores the impact of empires on the landscape, language, and people of Ukraine, which has long been a meeting place of various powers. The result is a fascinating and multilayered account that sheds light on both Ukraine's past and its future.
