Pipes’s Russia under the Bolshevik Regime: 1919–1924 (London 1994) covers the Civil War in Ukraine, as, marvellously, do Isaac Babel’s Collected Stories (London 1994) and Mikhail Bulgakov’s The White Guard (London 1989). The seminal works on Stalin’s famine and purges are Robert Conquest’s The Harvest of Sorrow (London 1986) and The Great Terror (London 1990). Victor Kravchenko’s I Chose Freedom (New York 1946) and Lev Kopelev’s The Education of a True Believer (New York 1980) are outstanding first-hand accounts of the period. Paul Hollander’s Political Pilgrims (New York 1981) is a blackly comic round-up of Western apologists for communism, Eugene Lyon’s Assignment in Utopia (London 1937) a fascinating memoir of life as a journalist in 1930s Moscow.
The most balanced treatments I found of the Ukrainian war record were David Marples’s Stalinism in Ukraine in the 1940s (New York 1992) and Philip Friedman’s Roads to Extinction: Essays on the Holocaust (New York 1980). Martin Gilbert’s The Holocaust (London 1986) details Jewish massacres month by month and town by town. Amongst survivors’ memoirs, Leon Weliczker Well’s The Janowska Road (London 1966) and Anatoly Kuznetsov’s Babi Yar (London 1970) stand out. Conquest’s The Nation Killers (London 1970) covers the deportation of the Crimean Tatars; Vera Tolz’s article in World War 2 and the Soviet People (London 1993) incorporates new research on the subject. The only English-language history of the khanate I know of is Alan Fisher’s The Crimean Tatars (Stanford 1978). The Transcarpathian débâcle of 1939 is hilariously described by Michael Winch in his Republic for a Day: an Eye-Witness Account of the Carpatho-Ukraine Incident (London 1939). Petro Grigorenko’s Memoirs (London 1983) cover, amongst much else, the Tatar liberation movement and the beginnings of Ukrainian dissidence.
Eye-witness accounts of the Chernobyl disaster are taken from Yuri Shcherbak’s Chernobyl: a Documentary Story (London 1989). The best general analyses of the accident are The Chernobyl Disaster, by Viktor Haynes and Marko Bojcun (London 1988), and Marples’s The Social Impact of the Chernobyl Disaster (London 1988). Ukraine: Perestroika to Independence by Taras Kuzio and Andrew Wilson (London 1994) details the tumultuous years 1987–1991; Solomea Pavlychko’s Letters from Kiev (New York 1992) capture the atmosphere of the time. Zbigniew Brzezinski’s The Premature Partnership, in vol.73, no.2 of Foreign Affairs, and Szporluk’s Belarus, Ukraine and the Russian Question: a Comment in vol.9, no.4 of Post-Soviet Affairs stress Russia’s non-acceptance of the loss of empire, and urge continued Western support for Ukrainian independence.
Amongst modern travel books, Anne Applebaum’s Between East and West (London 1995) and Neal Ascherson’s Black Sea (London 1995) both movingly cover parts of Ukraine. Lastly, Patricia Herlihy’s Odessa: a History 1794–1914 (Cambridge, Mass. 1986) and Michael Hamm’s Kiev: a Portrait, 1800–1917 (Princeton 1993) are excellent city histories.
