This was a good read.

An important book to read - especially these days with what's going on in Russia.

I found it interesting and would recommend.

Оце я називаю ґрунтовним підходом до теми. Снайдер закопується не лише в списки російських політиків та олігархів, але й у підвалини російської ідеології, яка уможливила вторгнення в Україну та втручання до виборів американського президента.

«Шлях до несвободи» допоміг мені розставити по місцях події, які призвели до президентства Трампа, та краще розібратися в образі, який він намагається грати. Більше американців мають прочитати цю книжку.

A good and informational book on Ukraine and Russia's political development, especially in the 20th and 21st centuries. Some portions are a little lengthy, and if you're caught up with the crimes of Donald Trump and his cronies the last chapter isn't new news. I think the best parts are his explanation of the politics of inevitability and the politics of eternity, which can affect all political ideologies. He presents history-imperfect and nuanced-as a middle way to guide us into the future. I do wish this idea was expanded on a bit more, but the book is still good nonetheless. Overall it's a good book on an important subject!
