'Brisk and thoughtful, this book could hardly be more timely'
Dominic Sandbrook, BBC History Magazine, Books of the YearAn
astonishingly wide-ranging history of Russian nationalism
chronicling Russia's yearning for Empire and how it has affected
its politics for centuriesIn 2014, Russia annexed Crimea and
attempted to seize a portion of Ukraine. While the world watched in
outrage, this violation of national sovereignty was in fact 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 merging of imperialism and nationalism in Russia
today by delving into its history.Spanning over two thousand 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 have exploited existing forms of identity, warfare and
territorial expansion to achieve imperial supremacy. A strikingly
ambitious book, Lost Kingdom chronicles the long and belligerent
history of Russia's empire and nation-building quest.
