Through Bosnian Eyes: The Political Memoirs of a Bosnian Serb FROM THE PUBLISHER
Mirko Pejanovic spent the years of the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina in an unrelenting quest to find peace. As a member of the highest governing body of Bosnia and Herzegovina for all but a few months of the war, he witnessed and participated in the regime's struggle to acquire international respectability. Through Bosnian Eyes is a level-headed, insider's account of the struggle. While others were toting guns and striking poses for the international media, Pejanovic was working to amplify the voices of the "other" Serbs who did not fully support the Serbian Democratic Party, and was a key negotiator during the 1993 Geneva negotiations. Unlike some of his fellow Bosnian Serbs, Pejanovic would not find himself indicted for war crimes.
