1.0 out of 5 stars
Too much repetition.,

This review is from: Shattered Illusions (Hardcover)
This book is about how the Communists came to power in Albania -- with a few mentions of Yugoslavia -- after World War II. Unfortunately, the author repeats himself too much so that the reader gets the impression that he could have made his point in a quarter the number of pages. I am sure the book is well researched; however, the author seems to have a bone to pick with the political spectrum in general while evidently siding with the Communist doctrine over any other. Had I not been using the book for research purposes myself, I don't think I would have finished it.

Illusions put together in fabulous articulation,
By VEN (London, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Shattered Illusions (Hardcover)
This is a great book about the communist and the other factors that have driven the government in the baltic region. I was glued to the pages as if in a trance. I found the book thought provoking and challenging. I think that the other person who left a review should be dragged out onto the streets and shot. There are no words to describe the detail and thought that this book provides. If you are doing any sort of research project I would reccommend this book above all others
