Historian Robert Service reconstructs the failed August 1991 coup against Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, beginning with his detention at his holiday home in Crimea and tracing the conspiratorsโ attempt to restore authoritarian rule. The book examines how the coup accelerated the collapse of the USSR, the transition from communism to capitalism, and the emergence of post-Soviet Russia. It also connects the political and economic consequences of that upheaval to the development of Russia under Vladimir Putin.
