Author: Geoffrey Hosking.
Only a historian with a profound knowledge of the subject and in the great tradition of British popularisation such as Geoffrey Hosking can carry out the boast of enclosing in a short volume, entitled Una muy breve historia de Rusia (Russian history. A very short introduction), a synoptic and rigorous account of the history of a country as vast and heterogeneous and with as many and varied incidents over the centuries as Russia.
From Kievan Rus to the nation that has emerged from the dismantling of the Soviet Union, Hosking presents and analyses with clarity the fundamental elements, problems and milestones that have shaped the history of a nation marked by its enormous size, its strategic location, the multitude of ethnic groups that inhabit it, its limited access to the sea and the vulnerability of its borders.
