He shows how contemporary hot issues such as the struggle for Ukraine were already crucial elements in the run-up to 1914.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBy incorporating into his book new approaches and comparisons, Lieven tells the story of war and revolution in a way that is truly original and thought-provoking.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48534287352037,"sku":"NP9780143109556","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780143109556.jpg?v=1773240800","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/the-end-of-tsarist-russia-the-march-to-world-war-i-and-revolution-isbn-9780143109556","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
