Reviews
"The need for an up-to-date study of Montenegrin history is self-evident. Elizabeth Roberts has provided a succinct account of this difficult and complex subject."-Richard Crampton, University of Oxford, "Elizabeth Roberts leads us skillfully along the highways and byways of Montenegro's excessive amount of history. . . . Have you got the details of the Eastern Question at your fingertips' Can you remember what exactly it was that brought Gladstone out of retirement to challenge evil with all the moral force at his command? Well, if you are a little rusty on all these issues, Roberts will tell you about the Black Mountain that was near the heart of this bloody matter and about much else besides, in Realm of the Black Mountain, her scholarly, readable, and well-written history of Montenegro."--Chris Patten, Times Literary Supplement, June 1, 2007, "An intelligent, readable, and very important study. A historical book could hardly be more relevant for the future, perhaps for the near future, than this one."-Aleksa Djilas, author of The Contested Country, "An intelligent, readable, and very important study. A historical book could hardly be more relevant for the future, perhaps for the near future, than this one."--Aleksa Djilas, author of The Contested Country, "Although it has a tiny population, Montenegro also has as rich and violent a past as anywhere else on the continent . . . . So it is perhaps all the more surprising that no general history of Montenegro, except for ones written by Montenegrins, has been published abroad since 1912. There was a very large gap to be filled, albeit for a very small place. Elizabeth Roberts, a former diplomat who has taught Balkan history, has filled it. Now that she has produced such a thorough book, future historians may not bother again: if one history was enough for the last century, perhaps one is enough for this century too."--The Economist, "Although it has a tiny population, Montenegro also has as rich and violent a past as anywhere else on the continent . . . .

Synopsis
Comparatively little is well known about Europe's newest and one of its smallest independent states: the small mountain fastness Montenegro. In a book written for specialists and general readers alike, Elizabeth Roberts traces its history from pre-Slavic times, including its part in the 1389 battle of Kosovo and its prominent role in resisting the Ottomans. She recounts Montenegro's development under its Prince-Bishops toward the independence achieved at the Congress of Berlin and lost after the Versailles Conference when the Podgorica Assembly voted to join the new Kingdom of Yugoslavia. When Slobodan Milosevic spoke of Montenegro and Serbia as "two eyes in the same head," he encapsulated a view that has deep roots in both nations. But not all Montenegrins agreed, and many chafed at being forced to play the role of Serbia's junior partner. Indeed, Montenegro's complex and shifting cultural and political identity is the main theme of Roberts's witty and dispassionate book, which culminates in Montenegro's defining referendum and subsequent international recognition in the summer of 2006.The history of Montenegro is at once a colorful, often bloodily violent story and instructive about how land, religion, and politics (both domestic and international) have intersected over centuries to shape and reshape cultural identities in Southeastern Europe. Students of national identity have much to learn from the Montenegrin case, and general readers will be enthralled by the dramatic tale that unfolds in Realm of the Black Mountain., Comparatively little is well known about Europe's newest and one of its smallest independent states: the small mountain fastness Montenegro. In a book written for specialists and general readers alike, Elizabeth Roberts traces its history from...

Described as in excellent condition but the Velcro that holds the pocket closed had enough broken stitches to cause it to tear off when I opened the pocket so not excellent but pretty good for a 15 year old pair of shorts.
