Albania

This book is a travelogue about Albania during the Albanian Renaissance, a period of cultural and political movement in the 19th and 20th centuries. The author provides a firsthand account of the country during this time when the Albanian people were striving for independence from the Ottoman Empire, which had ruled over them for centuries. The Ottoman authorities had suppressed any expression of national unity or conscience by the Albanian people, but during the Albanian Renaissance, they began to establish an independent cultural and political life. The book provides insights into the country's history, culture, and people during this significant period.
