    Glennys especially from the precise details of the history accounts some of which are purposely or unpurposely omitted from the history textbooks in the balkans

    Therefore i would definitively recommend this book to anyone who wants to better understand the history of balkan states and of course the meaning of the present situation in this european region

    I also was not familiar with misha glennys writing or reporting

    There are also some minor errors in election dates in the 1960s in greece at least at my edition

    It thus supports indirectly a very naive and dangerous notion that modern events can only be affected by the status quo bequeathed by the ottoman empire
