- Book Synopsis
- Now in its third edition, this new volume of the acclaimed The History of Russia offers a wealth of material on events of the last decade and a half. When first published, Charles Ziegler's The History of Russia was acclaimed as a source of information not easily found elsewhere, and as "clear, balanced, and insightful," by Rajan Menon of Lehigh University. Now Ziegler returns for a third edition, fully updated to be the work of choice for readers looking for an introduction to the history of the world's largest country. The History of Russia: Third Edition moves from the 10th-century founding of Kievan Rus to the tsars to the Communist Era to the war with Ukraine, with particular emphasis on the process by which Vladimir Putin established a fully authoritarian state. In addition to a new chapter on the tumultuous era Russia has seen since the second edition published in 2009, this edition features an updated introduction and an expanded chapter on the return to authoritarianism.
