Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estonia and the Estonians provides the first compendious survey in any language of Estonian history, from prehistoric times to the twenty-first century. Estonia's strategic geopolitical location—a crossroads where the major powers of northeastern Europe have struggled for influence—and the small number of ethnic Estonians are crucial factors that have shaped the history of the area and its inhabitants. The book emphasizes the period since the mid-nineteenth century, when a national movement calling for Estonian cultural and political autonomy began to emerge. During the two world wars, Estonia gained and lost political self-determination. Yet a modern Estonian culture was firmly established, and a strong sense of national identity survived the Soviet era.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Estonia is known as the "singing nation" because its people sang their way to freedom. In 1991, masses of singing protesters secured this small Baltic nation's independence from the Soviet Union. For nearly a thousand years, Estonia was occupied by foreign powers, traded back and forth by its more powerful neighbors of Germany, Sweden, and Russia. In the nearly thirty years since its independence from the Soviet Union, Estonia has become an international leader in digital technology while continuing to grow its powerful musical traditions. Readers explore Estonia's history of courage, defiance, and imagination in this book, which features vibrant images, intriguing quotes, and surprising sidebars.
