Product details

Author Information
Serhii Plokhy is the Mykhailo Hrushevsky Professor of Ukrainian History at Harvard University and a leading authority on Eastern Europe. His previous books include The Gates of Europe, The Last Empire, and Yalta: The Price of Peace.

Book Description
Located on the western edge of the Eurasian steppe, Ukraine has long been a crossroads of empires—from the Romans to the Ottomans, from the Habsburgs to the Russians—and all have left their mark on the landscape, language, and people living within these constantly shifting borders. In this authoritative book, Harvard Professor Serhii Plokhy traces the history of Ukraine from the arrival of the Vikings in the tenth century to the current Russian invasion of Eastern Ukraine and the annexation of Crimea. Fascinating and multifaceted, The Gates of Europe is an essential guide to understanding Ukraine.
