Russia’s February 24 invasion of Ukraine came from nowhere...? Felshtinsky and Stanchev’s gripping history of Putin’s attempts to Ukraine reveals his earliest attack came as early as 1999.

A bestseller published after Russia annexed the Crimea in 2014, it predicted that the Russian invasion was a matter the Russian army’s 6-year planning cycle and would happen in 2021.

They argue how Putin must be resisted to avoid a potential nuclear conflict that could drag the world into a global war.

An authoritative must-read to understand the causes of the crisis and what to do when.

""Terrifying."" Steven Edgington, Daily Telegraph ""Crucial... powerful."" Kirkus Reviews ""Simply excellent."" Karl-Peter Schwartz, Die Presse ""This is our 1937 moment."" General Sir Patrick Sanders, UK Army Chief of General Staff, 28 June 2022 ""Seizing Ukraine remains the main goal of Putin. Unfortunately, these words, much like the rest of the book, will prove prophetical."" General Oleg Kalugin, Former KGB Head of Counter-Espionage ""Historians are blessed with numerous virtues, but bravery is rarely among them. Still, living in a modern world requires fundamental reconsideration of all of the conventional notions regarding Russia and Ukraine, United States and Europe. This book by two brave and scrupulous historians will undoubtedly help the readers to comprehend the present, as well as to live in the future.""
