A History of the Balkans 1804-1945

by Stevan K. Pavlowitch

Book Overview

The Balkans have often been a flashpoint of conflict in European history. The recent civil war has torn the country apart and the region faces an uncertain future. This authoritative study provides an account of the history of the whole area from the first major nationalist rising against its Ottoman rulers in 1804 to the aftermath of World War II. Covering the former Yugoslavia, Albania, Greece, Bulgaria and Romania, it provides a Balkan-wide overview as well as histories of specific states and sets the context to the recent conflict.
