King Zog of Albania by Jason Tomes
A compelling biography of an unusual - and understudied - 20th century European ruler.
"Very well researched, critical yet balanced, this is the best book about Zog to have appeared in any language" -Bejtullah Destani,Director of the Centre for Albanian Studies "Vivid and atmospheric, but based on solid and scrupulous research, this is an outstanding account of one of the most intriguing figures in twentieth-century Balkan history. Non-specialists will read it with pleasure and fascination, and even specialists in Albanian history will find much to learn here from Jason Tomes's marvelously lucid analysis of the politics and diplomacy of the period." -Noel Malcolm,author of Bosnia: A Short History and Kosovo: A Short History "An outstanding biography of the most unusual and controversial king of the 20th century. Highly recommended." -CHOICE
