(E) What does it take for a country like Croatia to be "news worthy?"
|
|
Hi Nenad, In response to some of the comments generated by NBC's biased broadcast of the most watched opening of the Winter Olympic ceremonies in history, I have to agree that NBC needs to re think their portrayal of American ideals.

(E) Second Edition - Marcus Tanner's book "Croatia: A nation forged in War"
|

Marcus Tanner's book "Croatia: A nation forged in War" has just been updated for a second edition in paperback. It was the first sympathetic English language history of Croatia of note to be published in the UK. It is important for such books to do well, to enable further books on Croatia to be written. For various reasons I emphasise the last point!
