Romania - An Illustrated History

Romania - An Illustrated History Year - 2002 ISBN - 0-7818-0935-5

As a state, Romania has only been in existence since 1859, but the history of its people stretches back to the late Bronze Age and the early Iron Age, to the Geto - Dacians and the Romans. The concise yet thorough narrative tells the fascinating story of the evolution of the Romanians, the creation of the Romanian Principalities, their struggle against empire-building powers and their eventual unification to form the state of Romania. Many chapters begin with a section called "Perspective", which provides context for Romanian history by describing events occurring simultaneously in other parts of Europe.

The book's engaging, accessible format features over eighty illustrations, maps and charts. It is ideal for the student, traveler or generally curious reader.
