solid background to the hostilities.


Just what I am looking for.

In your opinion would watching the documentary be better to do first or after the book?

I actually never watched that documentary. I did read portions of the book before I deployed to Kosovo, among others.

I've been trying to think of others (and there are hundreds of books about the war), but many are wartime journals by participants or focused on a single individual.

Another one that is supposed to be good is:

The Balkans: Nationalism, War and the Great Powers, 1804 - 1999 (which obviously has a lot more focus on the Great War) and looks to at least cover through the hot war in Kosovo.

But, I haven't read that one and can't speak to it.
