Since Russian leader Vladimir Putin assumed power in 1999, speculation about his character, motives, and plans for Russia's future has been rampant in the West. A portrait of Putin has emerged in the West that is ill informed and diametrically opposed to the image of Putin the majority of Russians hold. In this interpretive biography, Allen C. Lynch seeks to reconcile the two conflicting images and find out just where the truth lies.
