"...the best work on Balkan history that has appeared so far and should become standard reading for historians, politicians, and all those interested in the survival of Europe."--International Review of History

Volume I discusses the history of the major Balkan nationalities. It describes the differing conditions experienced under Ottoman and Habsburg rule, but the main emphasis is on the national movements, their successes and failures to 1900, and the place of events in the Balkans in the international relations of the day.
