My Russia What I Saw Inside the Kremlin by Jill Dougherty The Globe Pequot Publishing Group, Inc

 Fascinated by Russia since her high-school days, Jill Dougherty studied the country (then the Soviet Union) and lived there in various roles for several years. This is an insightful look at how it has changed since then, the various governments, the attitudes of the American governments and Russia’s worldview. Her experience of Putin’s Russia is quite scary and she explains the lead-up to the invasion well.

She also writes about her and her girlfriend’s devastating battles with cancer.

I have a great interest in Russia so I really enjoyed reading this book. It should apoeal to anyone who likes autobiographies and wants to study the background to the Russian war with Ukraine.

I received this free ebook from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
