This book is an impressive documentation of the history, persecution and culture of the Romani people. Drawing from a plethora of scholarly work, Ian Hancock gives detailed explanations for the treatment of Romani groups throughout Europe, and reasons for continued stereotypes and prejudices towards traveling people.
This scholastic compilation engages the reader in clear, concise prose and challenges centuries of bigotry, ignorance and hypocrisy. A truly inspired read for the curious to the academic critic.
