Eastern Europe: Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland by Godfrey Blunden

Description

Eastern Europe has been one of the most complex and tragic areas in the world. Inhabited by several people who speak different languages and espouse different faiths, the region has been for centuries a fated borderland of empire, a thoroughfare of conquest, and an object of partition and subjection.

While this book may be published in 1970s and things have changed a lot, still it offers us all an opportunity to review in brief compass the background and highlights of historical problems in Eastern Europe. The presentative is vivid and the subject most topical.
