'Fascinating... One of the most astute political commentators on
Putin and modern Russia' Financial Times 'An amazing achievement'
Peter Frankopan Can anyone truly understand Russia? Let one of the
world's leading experts show you how, using the fascinating history
of a nation to illuminate its future. Russia is a country with no
natural borders, no single ethos, no true central identity. At the
crossroads of Europe and Asia, it is everyone's 'other'. And yet it
is one of the most powerful nations on earth, a master game-player
on the global stage with a rich history of war and peace, poets and
revolutionaries. In this essential whistle-stop tour of the world's
most complex nation, Mark Galeotti takes us behind the myths to the
heart of the Russian story: from the formation of a nation to its
early legends - including Ivan the Terrible and Catherine the Great
- to the rise and fall of the Romanovs, the Russian Revolution, the
Cold War, Chernobyl and the end of the Soviet Union - plus the rise
of a politician named Vladimir Putin.
