In 1917, Jewish and Ukrainian activists worked to overcome previous mutual antagonism in an independent Ukraine, but the bold experiment ended in terrible failure as anarchic violence swept the countryside.This revised edition of the 1999 printing includes a new Foreword and Afterword by the author.

Shofar "Abramson's impressive command of Ukrainian and Jewish sources lends itself to a critical shift" Association for Jewish Studies Review "Abramson's book rises above national agendas to provide an objective analysis."
