Description: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 BC with the peoples of the eastern Baltic litoral and continues into the 20th century, during which time the Latvians endured three ruthless foreign occupations. We learn of the desperate struggles - yet resolute vitality - of this peaceful agrarian nation that lived at the crossroads where both Western and Eastern European imperialisms have clashed throughout history.In studying this corner of Northern Europe, the author of History of Latvia, Professor Arnolds Spekke (1887-1972), a diplomat, historian, and Roman philologist, has used materials and sources that are not easily accessible and were previously under-explored.
