Product Description
In this first-ever complete history of Kosovo, Noel Malcolm carefully sifts facts from fiction and lays to rest many of the false claims which have bedevilled all discussion of the region. His account is based on a profound knowledge of both the original sources and the existing historical literature in every Balkan language.The story of Kosovo includes the key episodes of two national histories: the rise of the medieval Serbian state, and the making of modern Albania. This book also brings to life the story of Ottoman rule in Europe. It presents not only a crucial part of the background to the modern Yugoslav crisis, but also a vital element in the whole pattern of south-east European history.This is the 1998 paperback edition, revised, now out of print. internally very good, spine uncreased, , but there is age tanning and spotting to the external page block, otherwise unmarked.
