Behind one of the twentieth century"s most infamous events lies the forgotten story of Gavrilo Princip, Archaduke Franz Ferdinand"s assassin and unlikely catalyst of the Great War. Inspired by the idealism of the young Princip, Tony Fabijandc sets off on an unprecedented journey, shadowing the ghost of the assassin from the peasant village of his birth, across the rugged breadth of Bosnia-Herzegovina, to his fateful meeting in Sarajevo with the heir apparent to the Austro-Hungarian Empire. A human portrait of Princip emerges as Fabijancic, accompanied by his father, plunges us into the roiling heart of Bosnia then and now. Two parallel Journeys flow into one compelling story that takes readers interested in Balkan nationalism, political terrorism, and literary travel writing on a uniwue journey through a complex land. The son of a Croatian immigrant who escaped Yugoslavia in 1964, Tony Fabijancic was born in Edmonton, Alberta. He is an Associate Professor of English at Memorial University in Corner Brook, Newfoundland, and the author of Croatia: Travels in Undiscovered Country.
