Balkan Ghosts A Journey Through History

From the assassination that set off World War I to the ethnic warfare sweeping Bosnia and Croatia, the Balkans have been the crucible of the 20th century--the place where terrorism and genocide were first practiced as tools of policy. This enthralling political travelogue helps us understand that region's anguish. 16 pages of photos.

Helpful Score: 1
This is an excellent book about the history of the Balkans and the current (as of late 80s) state of the Balkans. Lots of interesting stuff about a land that not many Americans know anything about. Kaplan has written many other good books including "Imperial Grunts" and "The Coming Anarchy".
