Summary/Abstract: Book review. The structure of the book is well balanced, having a Foreword, a Note on the book, eight chapters, a bibliography, an index, and 44 colour illustrations. The chapters are called: The Middle Ages among the Romanians, At the Beginnings of the Hunyadis, Iancu’s Family, Iancu’s Legacy, Matia’s Wars, Matia and the Romanians, Matia’s Legacies, and The Hunyadis and Us. Almost all of them were originally articles, studies, and essays, having been published separately. This is not a monograph, but a series of thorough and complex investigations. The style is accessible, engaging and compelling. The author’s literary talent is obvious.
