In this fascinating book, Timothy Snyder traces the emergence of Polish, Ukrainian, Lithuanian, and Belarusian nationhood over four centuries, discusses various atrocities (including the first account of the massive Ukrainian-Polish ethnic cleansings of the 1940's), and examines Poland's recent successful negotiations with its newly independent Eastern neighbors, as it has channeled national interest toward peace.Europe, EasternHistory20th century947.084Snyder Timothy148769MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910807935603321The reconstruction of nations3978414UNINA
