Revolutionary Ukraine, 1917-2017: History's Flashpoints and Today's Memory Wars
ISBN: 9780367375577 / Angielski / Miękka / 206 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines four dramatic periods that have shaped not only Ukrainian, but also Soviet and Russian history over the last hundred years: the revolutionary struggles of 1917-20, Stalin's "second" revolution of 1928-33, the mobilization of revolutionary nationalists during the Second World War, and the Euromaidan protests of 2013-14.
