E-Book Overview
For important background information on long-term ethnic, religious, political, territorial and economic conflicts between nations today, there isn't a more targeted ongoing print series than History Behind the Headlines. Each biannual volume includes approximately 30 entries arranged geographically by continent, then by country, then chronologically by start date of the conflict. The entries are complete with overview essays, photographs, maps, charts, primary document excerpts, short biographies, current status and much more.
