Book Description:

Modern-day Eastern Europe—the product of a complex past—was a mystery to the rest of the world for decades. A region often mistakenly perceived as one homogeneous "bloc," Eastern Europe is in reality a collection of rich and vibrant countries, vastly differing in their landscapes, peoples, governments, and cultures.
