Although not widely studied in the West, the medieval history of south-eastern Europe is both fascinating and complex. The Kingdom of Hungary was a vast realm, at least the size of France, that endured throughout the Middle Ages whilst the Byzantine Empire was even more extensive and enduring.

The Serbians won themselves a brief but extensive local empire in the 14th century; while the Bulgarians established an effective and cultured state. Other playersin the confusing Balkan scene included the Albanians; Wallachians; Moldavians; Transylvanians; Croatians and many others.

How did they organise their armies and fight their wars; and why did they ultimately fail? This title answers these questions ably supported by numerous illustrations and eight colour plates.

Contents: Introduction · Chronology · Hungary · Byzantium · Bulgaria · Serbia · Albania · Romania · The Plates.
