About This Book

An engaging blend of travelogue and historical survey examines the country's past from medieval invasions and imperial domination through emergence from Ottoman rule into the turbulent conflicts of the modern era. The narrative pairs historical overview with eyewitness wartime reporting and vivid sketches of regional costumes, customs, dances, and peasant life, and it includes practical chapters on governance, economy, and tourism. Rich illustrations punctuate reflections on national character and on possible futures, closing with considerations of Europe's responsibilities toward stability in the region.
