Transylvania & The Balkans
The books in this section are about the Balkans
and Eastern Europe. They are part of a bibliography prepared by Rev. Harold
Babcock of the First
Religious Society (Unitarian Universalist) of Newburyport, Massachusetts.
Many thanks to Rev. Babcock for making this list available to others who
wish to understand the region better.
The geographic coverage in these sources ranges
from Transylvania itself to the entirety of Eastern Europe. All provide
useful background for those interested in our Partner Church in Haranglab , Transylvania.
