Hoare, Marko Attila,

The Bosnian Muslims in the Second World War / Marko Attila Hoare. - 1 online resource : illustrations (black and white), maps (black and white)

Includes bibliographical references and index.

The story of the Bosnian Muslims in World War II is often alluded to in discussions of the 1990s Balkan conflicts, but almost as frequently misunderstood or falsified. This study of the topic sets the record straight. Based on extensive research in the archives of Bosnia-Hercegovina, Serbia and Croatia, it traces the history of Bosnia and the Muslims from the Nazi German and Fascist Italian occupation of Yugoslavia in 1941, through the years of the Yugoslav civil war, and up to the seizure of power by the Communists and their establishment of a new Yugoslav state.
