{"product_id":"slav-outposts-in-central-european-gerald-stone-9781472592095","title":"Slav Outposts in Central European History: The Wends, Sorbs and Kashubs","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhile many think of European history in terms of the major states that today make up the map of Europe, this approach tends to overlook submerged nations like the Wends, the westernmost Slavs who once inhabited the lands which later became East Germany and Western Poland. This book examines the decline and gradual erosion of the Wends from the time when they occupied all the land between the River Elbe and the River Vistula around 800 AD to the present, where they still survive in tiny enclaves south of Berlin (the Wends and Sorbs) and west of Danzig (the Kashubs). \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eSlav Outposts in Central European History\u003c\/i\u003e - which also includes numerous images and maps - puts the story of the Wends, the Sorbs and the Kashubs in a wider European context in order to further sophisticate our understanding of how ethnic groups, societies, confessions and states have flourished or floundered in the region. It is an important book for all students and scholars of central European history and the history of European peoples and states more generally.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gerald Stone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1472592093\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781472592095\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Academic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/17\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 408\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.20w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/01\/2016","brand":"Gerald Stone","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46172988834047,"sku":"9781472592095","price":42.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5e13763f-9c9d-4043-bbc0-afab541a5b66.jpg?v=1727179654","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/slav-outposts-in-central-european-gerald-stone-9781472592095","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
