'Bosnia lies at the nodal point of the great historic civilisations and her history is difficult to write, because it needs several languages and a knowledge of very complicated events. In view of the Bosnian disaster today, it also needs an understanding of the world after the Cold War. To combine these qualifications in a book that is accessible is a formidable undertaking, defeating all but the best. Noel Malcolm is the best: here he has triumphed.' Professor N.Stone This revised edition has been updated with a new chapter covering the events of the last two years and remains the definitive work on the complex history of Bosnia.
