Realm of the Black Mountain – A History of Montenegro

Elizabeth Roberts’™ ‘œRealm of the Black Mountain” is a history of Montenegro that traces the history of the tiny Balkan state from its earliest roots in the medieval empire of Zeta. It also focuses on its troubled 20th century history. Going from pre-Slavic times, Roberts also includes Montenegro’™s part in the battle of Kosovo, and its unique role in resisting the Ottomans. It recounts Montenegro`s development under its Prince Bishops towards the independence achieved at the Congress of Berlin (with the public support of Gladstone and the poet Tennyson) and lost after the Versailles Conference when the Montenegrin Assembly voted, under the shadow of Serb bayonets, to join what was to become Yugoslavia. Elizabeth Roberts also analyses Montenegro`s largely unsung role in Yugoslavia`s demise, during which it made the perilous transition from being Milosevic`s staunchest ally to becoming a major thorn in his side, and the prospect of its becoming the first newly independent state this century.
