Mollie Arbuthnot:
"This is a work of considerable value to scholars with an interest in revolutionary politics and mass media, and these minor criticisms should not detract from its merits. It richly illustrates the extraordinary challenges of spreading information and winning political support in revolutionary Ukraine, and how these challenges were met by the succession of governments and parties that vied for power in the former imperial borderlands."
Svitlana (Lana) Krys, MacEwan University:
"Ladygina presents a meticulously researched and engaging reading of Kobylians'ka’s prose, addressing how ideas on the broad topics of comparative feminism, Nietzscheanism, modernism, and even fascism found expression in Kobylians'ka’s short stories and novels at different stages in her life."
Katia Denysova, Courtauld Institute of Art:
"Velychenko’s publication is a timely and informative contribution to the study of propaganda produced in Ukraine during the revolutionary and civil war years. Providing invaluable data for the historiography of the Ukrainian nation- and statehood construction, it calls for further sociohistorical and cultural contextualization of the competing propaganda efforts."
Olena Palko, Birbeck, University of London:
"This book presents the fullest account to date of the propaganda efforts on Ukraine’s territory during the civil war period."
Andrii Portnov, European University Viadrina:
"Velychenko’s book is a valuable contribution to the multi-faceted research on the Ukrainian revolutions. It could be productively used for comparisons of the Ukrainian situation with the other ‘national peripheries’ of the former Russian Empire, for transnational study of propaganda in inter-war Europe, or for in-depth local studies of particular Ukrainian cities, towns, and villages during the revolutionary turmoil."
Christopher Gilley, Library Archives and Special Collections, Durham University :
"One of the very few works on Ukraine in this period, Propaganda in Revolutionary Ukraine will be of interest to those specializing in the history of Ukraine in the period 1917–1921, but will find a broader audience among historians of the revolutions and wars in the former Russian Empire."
Johannes Remy, Department of History, University of Helsinki:
"Propaganda in Revolutionary Ukraine contains descriptions and analysis of propaganda released by various Ukrainian governments, including the Soviet ones. Presenting and analyzing what the belligerents wanted to tell to a wider audience adds substantially to our understanding of the revolutionary period. It is also an important source publication."
