Summary:

This book based on original diplomatic documents, military instructions, military reports, operational diary notes and memos deals with the Balkans tense religious and ethnic conflicts that arose in the late nineteenth century. It presents the military occupation of Bosnia, Herzegovina and the region today called Kosovo, as well as the events of the guerilla war between the Austro-Hungarian military force of 200,000 soldiers and the Albanian, Bosnian and Serbian resistance fighters. This book speaks of the bloody means of pacification and the consequences of a forced peace.
