Publisher's Synopsis
Volume 33 of Contemporary Austrian Studies (CAS) is dedicated
to regional histories of Austria. Martin Knoll from the University
of Salzburg provides a survey on where Austrian regional history
is written. H. Glenn Penny from UCLA pleads for a regional history
of what he calls "the South German borderlands" in the global
context from Salzburg through Bavaria and Baden-Wrttemberg
to Berne, Switzerland. A number of essays on Western Austrian
regional history add to the picture of a variety of regional histories
of Austria. A FORUM on the Allied bombing war in the Tyrol in
World War II and a ROUNDTABLE of reviews of John Boyer's
magnum opus Austria 1867-1955, along with a number of book
reviews, complete the volume.
