The dogs of Mariupol : Russia's invasion and the forging of Ukraine's iron generation

Mutch, Thomas2025
Books, Manuscripts
When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, Kateryna hung up her dresses, Oksana and Stanislav put down their lawyers' briefs, and Oksen slammed shut his philosophy textbooks. Alongside thousands of their fellow citizens, they strapped on armour, picked up weapons and chose to risk their lives for the freedom and independence of their homeland. Many would never return. Journalist Tom Mutch woke up in Kyiv on February 24 to a world changed forever. Making a fateful choice to stay and cover the invasion, he witnessed the forging of an 'iron generation' of young Ukrainians. With first-hand reporting from all the war's major battlegrounds and frontlines, this title recounts the war's notorious encounters, like the battle of Kyiv and the siege of Mariupol.
