Description
From a preeminent scholar of Eastern Europe and the prizewinning author of Chernobyl, the essential history of Russian imperialism. In 2014, Russia annexed the Crimea and attempted to seize a portion of Ukraine - only the latest iteration of a centuries-long effort to expand Russian boundaries and create a pan-Russian nation. In Lost Kingdom, award-winning historian Serhii Plokhy argues that we can only understand the confluence of Russian imperialism and nationalism today by delving into the nation's history. Spanning over 500 years, from the end of the Mongol rule to the present day, Plokhy shows how leaders from Ivan the Terrible to Joseph Stalin to Vladimir Putin exploited existing forms of identity, warfare, and territorial expansion to achieve imperial supremacy. An authoritative and masterful account of Russian nationalism, Lost Kingdom chronicles the story behind Russia's belligerent empire-building quest.

More like a history of Languages spoke in Russia.
This book was interesting in the first 2 parts but then it became technical with who spoke what language where and who were the major poets that pushed reform.

Great book
Great analysis of Historical Russian mindset. very entertaining enjoyed the emphasis on culture and the struggle to define Russia after the collapse of the soviet identity.The ending of the book seemed very biased towards Ukraine but its nearly impossible to get the other side of the story anywhere. one line really stood out to me about how russia had a plan to be the representative of conservative values to the west and this was to divide the west. this idea is key but i think the author does not understand how powerful the concept is as many traditionally minded people feel alienated in their own counties in light of the rapid exposure of what liberal values lead to. i think the framing of russia as the villain in the story is not accurate when taking a wide view based on their struggle and the long multi century reality of Rusaphobia that continues to thrive in the western mind.

mostly anti Russian Ukrainian nationalist book
as a student of Russia past and present I found the last chapter to very strongly focused on anti Russian Ukrainian nationalist half truths rather than a truly intellectually objective analysis of the events examined very disappointing book

Russian Aggression to Recapture its Lost Kingdom
An extraordinary and detailed analysis of Russian Aggression to Recapture its Lost Kingdom … and for the 21st Century, Putin’s War of Aggression to force formally Independent Countries into a renewal of a Russian empire, despite a series of International Treaties to honor Crimean, and Ukrainian independence in exchange for Russia taking all the former USSR’s nuclear weapons!

Must Read for understanding Ukrainian conflict
love learning the interesting yet essential impact of Ukraine to mother Russia itself. now it makes sense why the west wanted to take Ukraine their way. all to hurt Russia. poor Ruskis have not had an easy 30 years.

Timely and informative
I'm not an expert in the area so I can't vouch for the accuracy of this book. But assuming the author has his facts mostly right (which I do) this book provides an excellent overview of the history of Russia and its neighbors, in particular Belarus and Ukraine. Fascinating and quite timely.
