Reviews
An exceptional feat of war correspondence. It is hard to imagine that it will be surpassed as the definitive account of the conflict. There seem to be few important moments of the war that the two reporters did not witness...They have spun a gripping narrative of war, politics, and diplomacy.-- "New York Times Book Review"
An excellent ground-level account-- "Wall Street Journal"
A harrowing glimpse into the destabilization caused by the collapse of the Soviet Union and the troubled road to independence and democracy faced by its non-Russian members.-- "Kirkus Reviews"
