Reviews
'Readers can expect some serious myth-busting... The strength of this book lies not in ... grand speculations, but in its sharp detail.'
'A welcome re-appraisal of a cruel, charismatic and opaque figure who, for a time, bent the rest of the world to his will.' -- The Critic
'A fascinating, highly readable and groundbreaking contribution to our understanding of Tito, suggesting that his power and ambitions in the 1940s stretched much wider than has been assumed previously.' -- Marko Hoare, Associate Professor of Political Science and International Relations, Sarajevo School of Science and Technology, and author of 'The History of Bosnia'
'A compelling, provocative, and polemical examination of Tito's tenure and his position within the Cold War political (dis)order.' -- Jasmin Mujanovic, Assistant Professor of Political Science, Elon University, and author of 'Hunger and Fury: The Crisis of Democracy in the Balkans'
'Stripping away the nostalgia surrounding Tito, this meticulously researched book offers an unsparing re-appraisal of his life and contribution to the revolutionary climate of the twentieth century. While insightfully analysing the Yugoslav leader's imperial ambitions, it debunks myths around Tito's Partisans' role in taking Belgrade in 1944.' -- Elizabeth Roberts, Balkan scholar and former diplomat, and author of 'The Realm of the Black Mountain: A History of Montenegro'
