Summary:"The prolonged and bitter campaigns in Chechnya from 1994 to 2009 profoundly influenced Russia's politics, society and military. In this new edition of his popular 2014 work, Mark Galeotti traces the progress of the wars, from the initial Russian advance through to urban battles such as Grozny, and the prolonged guerrilla warfare in the mountainous regions. Updating the book with a revised introduction and new content on the Kadyrovtsy's role in Russia's other conflicts, Galeotti assesses how the wars have torn apart the fabric of Chechen society and impacted Russia itself. Featuring full-colour maps and over 50 new images, and drawing upon a wide range of sources, this succinct account by a leading expert on modern Russia explains the origins, history and consequences of the wars in Chechnya, shedding new light on the history--and prospects--of the troubled region."--Back cover
