Recenzii

'A heart-breaking study of forgotten fighters for Russia in the early twentieth century and a tribute to the vibrant activism of medical experts, social organizers, state officials, and wounded veterans. Their efforts created rights for the disabled, even as soldiers' sacrifices in world war one dropped out of Soviet sight.' Jane Burbank, New York University
'Meticulously researched, eloquent and moving, Alexandre Sumpf's important book brings disabled veterans, their sufferings, their emerging rights, previously overlooked or misunderstood, back to their proper place, at the heart of Russia's war experience in the early twentieth century.' Bruno Cabanes, The Ohio State University
'Sumpf shows how Russia's disabled veterans of the Great War found a voice, culminating in the Revolution, but were ignored by the Bolsheviks. He puts their experience of war and disability into its international context while exploring the relationship between Russia's Great War and Revolution. A moving and important study.' John Horne, Trinity College Dublin
'The Broken Years brilliantly excavates the lost voices of Russia's disabled veterans, long suppressed by both Tsarist and Bolshevik policymakers. Sumpf persuasively argues that disabled veterans of the First World War fought to amplify their voices as citizens through organizations such as the Union of Maimed Soldiers, but that the early Soviet state discriminated against them, crushed their movement, and relegated them to poverty.' Karen Petrone, University of Kentucky
