Situated on the borders of Europe and Asia, Ukraine-Rus' was subjected to great pressure from the East and South, and then in the later centuries also from the North and South-west. But Ukraine has not only survived history's test but has managed to consolidate its national resources in its relentless struggle for national independence and sovereignty. Especially in the XX century Ukraine our nation is once again on its way to victory over Russian-communist forces which imprison the soul and national aspirations of our people. ***Although there are many books devoted solely to Ukraine and its people, one has a feeling that there are still many people who know very little about the Ukrainian people with whom they associated at home, at work or in other places of social gatherings. This publication is intended for such needs. The articles collected in this book provide general information about the geographical location of Ukraine in eastern Europe and Euro-Asia, the history and culture of its people, their struggle for independence in last centuries, their present position in the USSR and her aspirations for the future. At the same time this book provides general information about the Ukrainian community in Great Britain. It also portrays some of the problems of our present-day activities in the West which have as their aim to bring about a united front of Ukrainians and their friends in a stand against the persecutions and overwhelming pressure of Russification in Soviet Ukraine at present. This book lists a number of periodicals and books which could help those who would like to look further and deeper into the matters outlined in this publication. ***The publishers do not need to emphasize the world situation which we all face today. Ukraine, which is the second largest nation in the Soviet-Russian empire, is already in the front line of those who strive for a better future in their free and national states, on whose freedoms, cultural, political and economic co-operation on a voluntary basis, the future of the World depends.'
