Romania occupies a unique position on the map of Eastern Europe. It is a country that presents many paradoxes. In this book the pre-eminent Romanian historian Lucian Boia examines his native land`s development from the Middle Ages to modern times, delineating its culture, history, language, politics & ethnic identity. Boia introduces us to the heroes & myths of Romanian history, & provides an enlightening account of the history of Romanian Communism. He shows how modernization & the influence of the West have divided the nation
- town versus country, nationalists versus pro-European factions, the elite versus the masses
- & argues that Romania today is in chronic difficulty as it tries to fix its identity & envision a future for itself. The book concludes with a tour of Bucharest, whose houses, streets & public monuments embody Romania`s traditional values & contemporary contradictions.

Rosemary Rennon discovered Romania in 1993 when she went hunting for the small village where her father was born. She was captivated by its scenery & by the simplicity of a country just awakening from its long communist nightmare. Unfamiliar to many due to its long isolation, Romania is comprised of five distinct regions resulting from both their unique landscapes & their historical populations of Dacians, Romanians, Germans, Hungarians & Turks. In addition to its rolling green hills & valleys, with the arc of the Carpathian mountain chain in its centre, the country`s southeastern region on the Black Sea provides a massive wildlife refuge, as well as miles of sandy beach resorts. Its cities are filled with outstanding architectural gems & modern activities. All this, plus a fascinating, turbulent history & the lovely Romanian tongue-considered by many to be the original romance language-belong to a culture one will never want to leave. ...
