"Studies of the legendary Zaporizka Sich Cossack chieftain figure Ivan Sirko (1605 (?) -1680), an outstanding fighter against foreign invaders the fame of whom goes far beyond the borders of Ukraine, have been withheld, falsified and forbidden in the times of the czar and those of the chief. In this publication the author, relying on a wide range of sources discovered during over 30 years in archives of Ukraine, Russia, Poland, Germany, research papers and articles by other historians, tries to fill the gap in the Ukrainian historiography describing the life and activity of Ivan Sirko as fully as possible.
The book is intended for scholars, politicians, teachers and students, as well as anyone interested in the history of Ukraine."
