«'The Sandzak occupies a crucial position in the Western Balkans. At times in its varied history it has been the focal point of European, and even world attention. If the Western Balkans erupts again the Sand ak could become a region of critical importance. Its varied history therefore needs to be known, and Morrison and Roberts have provided an excellent introduction to that history. This is the first English-language history of the area and it will be essential reading for all those concerned with the Balkans.'»

«'Morrison & Roberts have written the first detailed scholarly analysis of an important but neglected part of what was once Yugoslavia. The book deals convincingly with the historical evolution of the Sandzak, its position during the Yugoslav crisis of the 1990s, the realignment of Yugoslavia's Muslims along national lines, the important role played by Muslim minorities in internal Montenegrin developments, and the conflicts between Serbs and Muslims (Bosniaks) and among the Slavic-speaking Muslims of Serbia. Well written, well-researched and fascinating to read, this book goes far beyond merely a study of the local politics of a small territory.'»
