Excellent and informative,

This review is from: Tito, Mihailovic, and the Allies (Paperback)
This is, at present, one of THE books (in the English language) on understanding the roots of today's headlines. Mr. Roberts takes a scholarly and refreshingly unbiased approach to the tangled history of the two rival Yugoslavian resistance movements: the monarchist and Republican Chetniks of General Drazha Mihailovich, and the communist Partisans of Josip Broz Tito. With the excellent book by Richard West titled "Tito and the Rise and Fall of Yugoslavia" a reader will be much more informed than by the pedantics of Western left-wing and right-wing editorials and so-called "news reporting" of the past decade.

By critical reader (Maryland, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Tito, Mihailovic, and the Allies (Paperback)
This is a fascinating read on a sensitive and actively obfuscated period of Balkans history. The author interviewed a large number of important people from all sides who were still alive at the time. A true page-turner for a history buff tired of one-sided, interest driven mythologies or just plain lying (by omission or otherwise) so typical of Balkans related writings. This book is a key to understanding Balkans politics and attitudes.
