Only a few years have passed since Russia's attack on Georgia, but already several books have been published about it. Among the more extensive and informative ones is Ron Asmus's book about the little war that shook the world. Standing at the center of the events himself, Asmus has access to a wealth of unique information that allows him to navigate smoothly between Western capitals, the Georgian president's cabinet, and the Kremlin. The book sheds light on the actual reasons for the war from a Western perspective and debunks several myths. Asmus is rightfully critical of Western naivety and missteps. Although the book primarily deals with foreign policy events, it provides a comprehensive picture of the August War and its consequences, serving as a serious warning to the Western world
