Ian Bancroft is a writer and diplomat who has been based in the former Yugoslavia for over a decade. He has worked for the European Union in Kosovo and the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) in Serbia and Bosnia-Herzegovina, and has written extensively about Balkan affairs for a variety of publications, including The Guardian and Radio Free Europe. He has lectured on conflict and peacebuilding, and is the author of a chapter, entitled Reconciliation through Recognition, in The Yugoslav Example: Violence, War and Difficult Ways Towards Peace.

Ian Bancroft has scripted a rare and anthropological picture of moods and the complexity of views in the north of Kosovo, of the specific subculture which exists there. Simultaneously, he interweaves local history and wider politics with rich descriptions of the nature and landscapes of those unknown northern lands.--Joanna Hanson, Director of Kosovo NGO New Perspektiva
