      abstract = {Describes the collapse of the Russian Empire during World  War One. Drawing material from nine different archives and  hundreds of published sources, this study ties together  state failure, military violence, and decolonization in a  single story. The volume moves chronologically from the  Balkan Wars of 1912-13 through the fierce battles and  massive human dislocations of 1914-17 to the final collapse  of the Russian Empire in the midst of revolution in  1917-18. Imperial Apocalypse is the first major study which  treats the demise of the empire as part of the  twentieth-century phenomenon of modern decolonization, and  it provides an account of military activity and political  change throughout this turbulent period of war and  revolution.},
