Summary/Abstract: This book has no pretence of being merely a dry historical record of events. It is rather in the nature of a series of historical pictures, sketching in broad outline the times of stress and danger through which Serbia has passed, and the stand she has invariably made for her own rights and those of others. A plentiful suppy of ‘Notes’ helps to fix in the mind the historical background. // This is not a book to skim and then to discard. It is rather a book to browse on at leisure, to help us probe into the history and ideals of a small nation, ignorant for the most part of our nation, but which places an almost childlike faith on our sense of honesty and fair-dealing: a country which has won the right of being judged by the actions, past and present, of her heroic inhabitants, today risking their all for freedom to five. The author of this book, who is a Serb and knows his people well, in quoting Mr. Churchill’s words „Yugoslavia found her soul,“ added that the Serbs had never lost it. May I express the wish that it is for us to help them guard it. (from Lord Milne's foreword)
