Book synopsis

This antiquarian volume contains E. J. Harrison's 1922 overview of Lithuanian society, "Lithuania - Past & Present". Within this text, Harrison puts forth a general outline of Lithuanian history, geography, economic position and possibilities, political problems, and cultural characteristics. It was a book originally intended for the edification English readers in the early twentieth century, but still contains much that will be of relevance in the present day. Contents include: "English Ignorance of Lithuania", "Lithuania's Former Greatness", "A Topological Outline", "Historic and Ethnographic Lithuania", "Area and Population", "The Rise of Lithuania", "The Lithuanian People not of Slavonic Origin", "Period of Decadence", etcetera. Many vintage texts such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
