The Georgian-Abkhazian war was one of the most bloody and tragic conflicts that shook the territory of the former Soviet Empire after its disintegration. The war was accompanied by mass destruction and gross violations of human rights. Even today, nearly a decade after the eruption of this war, there is much controversy about its causes, main players and the most important events. Based on rarely accessible Abkhaz, Georgian and Russian sources and personal accounts, Chirikba describes the historical roots of the conflict between the Georgians and Abkhazians, and follows the development of events which led to the war between these two neighbouring Caucasian nations.
