President Volodymyr Zelensky’s message to the world – a rallying cry for us all to stand up, support Ukraine and fight for democracy

The words of a man. The message of a people.

Bringing together a new introduction by Volodymyr Zelensky with his most powerful war speeches, this book recounts Ukraine’s story through the words of its president.

It is the story of a nation valiantly defending itself from Russian aggression. And it is the story of a people leading the world in the struggle for democracy.

Above all, it is a battle cry for us all to stand up and fight for liberty. If not now, when?
