Hungary and the fall of Eastern Europe 1000–1568

How did the medieval Balkans 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.

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 players in 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.
