Descriptionof David and Goliath
Manufacturer

The biblical image of David and Goliath aptly illustrates the nature of the war that Russia, the world's largest country by area, unleashed against neighboring Ukrainea country that, while still the largest on the European continent, is almost thirty times smaller and has only slightly more than a quarter of Russia's population. Yet Ukraine's tenacious resistance proves that a successful defense against a vastly larger, more populous, and better-equipped enemy is possible, even amidst threats of nuclear annihilation should Ukraine refuse to submit and the West dare to intervene. This volume demonstrates how history can help us understand the reasons for Ukraine's resolve and success on the battlefield and in the public eye. "David and Goliath" includes, for the first time, short essays, commentaries, and interviews written and given by Serhii Plokhy, the world's leading expert on Ukrainian history, on the eve of and during the first two years of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Plokhy draws our attention to the unique character of the truly historic events of the largest war in Europe since the end of the Second World War.
