Summary |
"This first English-language synthesis of the history of Dnipro locates the city in regional, national, and transnational context. The history of a 'Ukrainian Manchester' is seen through the prism of the imperial colonization and industrialization, the war and the revolution in the borderlands, the everyday life and mythology of a Soviet closed city, and the transformations of post-Soviet Ukraine"-- Provided by publisher |
