- This book is not simply a historical study; its author and publishers have attempted to erect a monument to a nation that, throughout its heroic resistance to many tribulations, has never given up.
The story begins in 2000 B.C. with the peoples of the Eastern Baltic littoral and continues into the 20th century, during which time the Latvians endured three ruthless foreign occupations. We learn of the desperate strugles – yet resolute vitality – of this peaceful agrarian nation that lived at the crossroads where both Western and Eastern European imperialisms have clashed throughout history.
