Black Garden - Armenia and Azerbaijan Through Peace and War (De Waal Thomas)(Paperback) - diskuze

"Brilliant."--Time "Admirable, rigorous. De Waal is] a wise and patient reporter."--The New York Review of Books "Never have all the twists and turns, sad carnage, and bullheadedness on all side been better described--or indeed, better explained...Offers a deeper and more compelling account of the conflict than anyone before."--Foreign Affairs Since its publication in 2003, the first edition of Black Garden has become the definitive study of how Armenia and Azerbaijan, two southern Soviet republics, were pulled into a conflict that helped bring them to independence, spell the end the Soviet Union, and plunge a region of great strategic importance into a decade of turmoil. This important volume is both a careful reconstruction of the history of the Nagorny Karabakh conflict since 1988 and on-the-spot reporting of the convoluted aftermath. Part
