Description
The Baltic: A History by Michael North presents a fresh perspective on the region's maritime zone, exploring its patterns of trade, cultural exchange, and conflict over 1,000 years. The Baltic lands have been home to diverse linguistic groups since prehistory, including Balts, Slavs, Germans, and Finns. This book examines how the region's tribes, peoples, and states have interacted with each other, as well as with global powers and foreign regimes, tracing their impact on cultural movements from Christianity to Modernism.
