KosovoWar and Revenge; Second Edition
This is a revealing account of how Kosovo became the crucible of one of the twentieth century’s most poisonous ethnic conflicts. Written by a seasoned journalist who witnessed the Balkan conflagration and its aftermath, the book presents a gripping analysis of the origins of the Serb-Albanian conflict, the course of the battle, the issues and personalities, and options for the future. In this second edition Tim Judah updates the story to, and beyond, the fall of Milosevic.
“A superb political narrative of the fight for Kosovo.”—Fouad Ajami, New York Times Book Review
“[Judah] provides the most comprehensive English-language account yet of the Kosovo Liberation Army’s transformation from a band of outcasts to the most powerful political force in Kosovo.”—Michael Dobbs, Washington Post Book World
“A serious history book written with the pace of a thriller: action flits between Swiss cafes and the very lairs of the warlords themselves.”—Nicholas Foulkes, Financial Times
Tim Judah has broadcast about Kosovo and has written about it for many newspapers. He is also the author of the prizewinning book The Serbs: History, Myth, and the Destruction of Yugoslavia.
