Review Quotes
1. ." . . Russian gas exports to Europe have been the province not of historians but of energy specialists and political scientists trying to keep up with fast-moving events. The return to history is welcome. Ho]gselius is admirably equipped for it, comfortable in several languages and as happy explaining what happened to the methane molecules and steel pipes as with events in boardrooms and embassies." - American Historical Review "Red Gas is a fascinating study into the background and nature of Europe's energy dependency on Russian natural gas. The volume benefits from a dispassionate treatment of a commendable breadth of archival sources, producing a prime example of transnational history, rich in present-day relevance." - Slovo "Hogselius has . . . made a timely contribution to an understanding of the historical, as well as current, factors which will continue to influence future commercial relationships between the EU and Russia, as the former continues to demand natural gas imports and the latter seeks to maximise income from exports of that commodity." - Journal of Contemporary European Studies "The first comprehensive study of the flow of gas between the USSR and Europe, this excellently researched book tells the fascinating story how Western Europe's current dependence on Russian energy resources originated in the dynamics of the Cold War. It is a novel and eye-opening work, one that is truly important for students of history, environmental studies, and international relations." - Helmuth Trischler, Director of the Rachel Carson Center for Environment and Society, Munich, Germany '"Red Gas is a pioneering contribution to transnational history writing. The book illustrates nicely that the 'Iron Curtain' was never as impenetrable as we might believe, and it proves unequivocally the catalytic power of infrastructures in overcoming ideological and national boundaries." - Mikael Hard, Professor of History of Technology, Darmstadt University of Technology, Germany "Per Hogselius demonstrates here both a mastery of archival sources in multiple languages and a deep appreciation for the challenges involved in Europe's 'hidden integration' - cultivating trust, reducing uncertainty, and replacing fear with interdependence. This is top quality transnational history." - Philip Scranton, Rutgers University, USA"

Red Gas is organized into twelve chapters with the first and the last serving as an introduction and conclusion. Red Gas is a timely study which highlights how local, national and international phenomenon created a truly transnational system with a level of detail often missing from similar studies. this book is a great resource not only for scholars of the European, Soviet and post-Soviet region but Europe more generally.
