Bosnia has left comparatively few written records of its culture, and this book attempts to fill that gap with an anthology of British travel accounts of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

In addition to revealing the attitudes of the British toward the Balkans, this book discusses how these travel narratives may hold clues to the roots of the recent war in Bosnia.British travel writers on Bosnia and Herzegovina from the sixteenth to the twentieth centuries.
