This eagerly awaited volume, the first of its kind by western
scholars, describes the development amongst the diverse inhabitants
of the immense landmass between the Carpathians and Urals of a
political, economic and social nexus (underpinned by a common
culture and, eventually, a common faith), out of which would emerge
the future Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. The authors explore every
aspect of life in Rus, using evidence and the fruits of post-Soviet
historiography. They describe the rise of a polity centred on Kiev,
the coming of Christianity, and the increasing prosperity of the
region even as, with the proliferation of new dynastic centres, the
balance of power shifted northwards and westwards. Fractured,
violent and transitory though it often is, this is a story of
growth and achievement - and a masterly piece of historical
synthesis.
