More about the book
The book explores the history of the Carpatho-Rusyns, a stateless ethnic group with roots in Carpathian Rus', central Europe. While official censuses report just over 100,000 individuals, estimates suggest their population may reach around 1,000,000, primarily in Ukraine and Slovakia. Additionally, a significant diaspora exists, with nearly 600,000 Carpatho-Rusyns residing in the United States, highlighting their cultural and historical significance in both Europe and America.
