Reviews

The essays provide new insights into the question of Habsburg endurance, while offering perceptive suggestions about its ultimate collapse... [The book] represents a valuable attempt to publish new research and new perspectives on familiar questions. Carefully edited and with an excellent set of maps and a solid bibliography, the book offers students and specialists alike fresh thoughts about the Habsburg Monarchy, the Soviet Union, and Yugoslavia. Concise and varied angles... Its lucid and informative contributions make it good value.
