Estonia: Return to Independence
After breaking free from the Bolsheviks in 1918, Estonia enjoyed independence until 1940, when the country was subsumed by the Soviet Union. Not until 1991 was Estonia able to make its next successful bid for sovereignty. In this book, Taagepera traces the evolution of Estonia from prehistory to the present, when a radical turn of events in the former U.S.S.R. once again altered the destiny of this Baltic nation.
