Synopsis "The Civil War in Bosnia and Herzegovina (1992-95): Political, Military, and Diplomatic History / Political, Social and Religious Studies of the Balkan (in English)"
The war in Bosnia and Herzegovina (1992-1995) was the bloodiest and most savage conflict in post-WWII Europe. While numerous books and articles on the subject exist, this book fills an important void by comprehensively addressing the intricacies of the conflict's political, historic, military, and diplomatic factors. The brutal civil war triggered by the demise of Yugoslavia. Based on documents and eyewitness accounts, the book covers the ideologies, hidden agendas, military operations, covert actions, and diplomacy that resulted in the Dayton Peace Accords of 1995. It also includes the geography, population, and tumultuous history of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The author convincingly dispels myths related to the war, including pre-planned Serbian aggression, the siege of Sarajevo, the massacres of civilians in the UN "safe areas" of Srebrenica and Zepa, and Slobodan Milosevic's role. About the Author: Born in Moscow, Russia, Viktor Bezruchenko graduated from the Military Institute in Moscow and was commissioned as second lieutenant in 1980.
