Description:

"Above and Beyond is the first book by a major Ukrainian independence figure to appear in the West and is the first by a former Soviet general to discuss the inner workings of the USSR's military. Morozov provides behind-the-scenes insights on Kravchuk, Yeltsin, and other important players of the period. His book will firmly alter our perception of the USSR and its demise, the Soviet military machine, and the rise of modern, independent Ukraine. Above and Beyond will appeal to all those who are interested in the fall of the Soviet Union and the rise of the newly independent states. It also is a valuable resource for those interested in Soviet military history and the creation of the new armed forces in Ukraine."--BOOK JACKET.
