Product Description

Review

"Written by a sophisticated historical analyst, this book is nevertheless more accessible to non-specialists than any comparable work. Lonnie Johnson explains the region's paradoxes objectively, but also with deep sympathy.... Travelers, officials, and businessmen who wish to understand the contradictions of this vital, appealing, but often alarming heart of Europe must read this illuminating narrative." -- Daniel Chirot, University of Washington


Review

He manages to make an enormous expanse of history accessible to the average reader in very few pages. There are not many books that set the historical context for this part of the world so well. (Foreign Affairs ) --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent synthesis of a misunderstood region., 24 Oct 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Central Europe: Enemies and Neighbors and Friends (Hardcover)
This book is being used as a supplemental reading in a seminar class in Eastern Europe. Johnson, as the third generation of Slavic historians, has written an easy to read, well documented, and scholarly work. His theses are easy to comprehend, and he makes the region, politics, and ethnic struggles of the region accessible to all readers.
