Publisher's Note Twice in this century, Germany initiated wars of unimagined terror in the name of the German homeland, Prussia. But what was once Prussia is now Eastern Europe, a contested land crisscrossed by war, partitioned by barbed wire, and left in shambles in the wake of communism. Roy has gone to search through the rubble himself and, in the process, sketches a moving portrait of today's Eastern Europe.
Industry Reviews "Roy's haunting book wanders through both the past and the present of this once powerful realm..." D'Souza
"At his best, in descriptive or ruminative vein, the author writes with insight and grace...." Times Literary Supplement - David Blackbourn (04/28/2000)
