011 - Through Dalmatia and the Border-lands
from Our Little Austrian Cousin · host Florence E. Mendel
In this engaging volume, I aim to provide young readers with a vivid and personal insight into the diverse and expansive territory known as the Austro-Hungarian Empire. This unique collection of provinces, united under a single ruler, is fascinatingly the only significant country in the world without a distinct language of its own, as its various ethnic groups—German, Slav, Magyar, and others—each communicate in their own tongues. While the book primarily focuses on Austria and Tyrol, it also offers glimpses into other provinces, including Dalmatia and Bosnia, ensuring a well-rounded exploration of this remarkable region.
