About this ebook
"Bosnia-Herzegovina" was originally published in French in Geneva, Switzerland in 1917, as a way of familiarising the reading public with the land that was often in the headlines in the late XIX and early XX centuries, but was still largely an unknown. Written from a Serbian perspective on the history and the wartime situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Nikola Stojanović was able to provide a unique insight, as he was elected as a representative in the Assembly, the primarily ceremonious parliament of Bosnia and Herzegovina under Austria-Hungary, during the only elections for it during the Austro-Hungarian rule. Most of the Serb members of the Assembly ended up imprisoned for their political views or were stuck in the country during the First World War, giving Stojanović a rare voice which was able to represent the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina with a relative insider's perspective.
