The Ukrainian Cossacks became famous as ferocious warriors, their fighting skills developed in their religious wars against the Tartars, Turks, Poles, and Russians. In this pioneering study, Serhii Plokhy examines the confessionalization of religious life in the early modern period, and shows how Cossack involvement in the religious struggle between Eastern Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism helped shape not only Ukrainian but also Russian and Polish cultural identities.

Jewish History ... rewarding reading ... Plokhy maintains a well-balanced attitude and is not given to hyperbole.

SEER Excellent monograph ... a penetrating analysis ... much to enjoy and much that illuminated in Plokhy's dense and fascinating book ... a fresh and vivid account.

Robin Milner-Gulland, Times Literary Supplement Thanks to its magisterial command of sources and scrupulous sense of balance, Plokhy's narrative has an authority, even grandeur, that should make it the standard account for years to come.
