Banac (ed.), Eastern Europe in Revolution (Ithaca, NY, 1992); a vivid eyewitness account is T. Garton Ash, The Magic Lantern (1990). G. Lundestad (ed.), The Fall of Great Powers: Peace, Stability and Legitimacy (Oxford, 1994), sets the Soviet withdrawal in historical context. On eastern Europe after communism, I found A. E. Dick Howard (ed.), Constitution Making in Eastern Europe (Washington, 1993), full of echoes of the past. Dissent (summer 1996) has some good articles on minorities. T. Rosenberg, The Haunted Land (1993), is one of the most evocative of many accounts of the region’s efforts to settle past scores. A. Applebaum, Between East and West: Across the Borderlands of Europe (1995) is a highly readable travelogue informed by a fine historical sensibility.
