Regional Networks in Context: Economy and Trade in the Lower Danube Balkans of the 19th Century

The case study of the broad and diverse network of people and ventures of the brothers Evlogi and Hristo Georgievi took the æcentral stageÆ of the book as an illustration of the evolution of the Bulgarian society and elite in the 19th century.
