New Standard of Excellence,
By
This review is from: Tannenberg and After: Lithuania, Poland and the Teutonic Order in Search of Immortality (Paperback)
In his many historical works on the medieval history of the Eastern Baltic region, William Urban has set a very high standard of historical excellence. Tannenberg and After pushes the standard to new heights, not only within the area of medieval Baltic History, but in how a historical account should be presented. Throughout the book Urban paints a picture of the times through the eyes of the various participants. His approach provides the reader with as accurate an account as is available in the English language. He also strives to dispel the myths promoted by earlier historians that presented the topic from a nationalistic bias. Overall I found the book to be truly fascinating, well written and a remarkable scholarly accomplishment from a World Class Historian.
