Vladimir Putin: Russia's Autocratic Ruler (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781678204884)

For more than two decades, Vladimir Putin, the president of the Russian Federation, has nurtured his goal of restoring Russia's global power and influence. A longtime opponent of the West, he has mouthed support for democracy while at the same time ruling Russia with an iron fist. And then, in early 2022, Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine. His willingness to use crushing violence against his supposed enemies--including even threats of nuclear strikes--makes him one of the most dangerous leaders in the world. This book explores Putin's life and legacy.
