Art of Kosovo : The Sacred Land
by Gojko Subotic

Reviewer: A reader from Amman, Jordan
 This beautiful and comprehensive coffee-table size book is a valuable and
poignant record of Kosovo's rich Serbian Orthodox Christian religious
heritage dating back almost a thousand years which is literally being blown
to smithereens on a daily basis by the Albanian victors of Clinton's
splendid little air war in Kosovo! These Byzantine style churches and
monasteries, vivid frescoes and liturgical art survived the 5 century
Ottoman occupation, 2 World Wars, and Tito's communism. Unfortunately, the
photos in this book may soon be all that is left. That only makes this well
produced volume even more valuable.

Reviewer: Mitch Strbac from Australia
 What a great book in regards to showing what historic significance Kosovo &
Metohija has to the Serbian nation. The illustrations are simply
breathtaking and tempts one to go there and view the beauty in person (if it
were not for the violence). The book will soon be a book on history as it
seems that every day another church or monastery is blown away by the
Albanian population while the West sanctifies their actions. Great book and
its a shame that we can't go to Kosovo and Metohija and view it in person!
