Robert Austin joined us for a discussion of his new book that begins in 1961, when Albanian King Zog I died in a Paris hospital after 22 years in exile. Austin tells the colorful story of this Balkan country’s first and only homegrown monarch. The road to becoming Europe’s youngest president in 1925 and then king of Albania in 1928 was paved with feuds and assassinations. Austin combines Zog’s adventurous life story with a studious analysis of Albania’s political history from the fall of the Ottoman Empire to the threshold of Euro-Atlantic integration.
Remarks by Professors Randall Hansen and Edward Schatz.
