Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Through the Lands of the Serb," originally published in 1904, was the first book of the English traveller and writer Edith Durham (1863-1944). It is a literary reflection of three of her early expeditions to Montenegro and Serbia (as well as northern Albania and Kosovo) in 1901, 1902 and 1903, and provides great insight into regions of Europe that were little known and rarely visited at that time. One cannot help but admire the energy, resolve and courage of this indefatigable Edwardian lady travelling on her own through regions that were reputed to be extremely dangerous.

CHAPTER XVIII To Dechani And Back To Podgoritza Having shown me all over the monastery, the Iguman suggested that Dechani was only three hours' ride, and that, as my pony was fed and refreshed, I could easily ride over in the cool of the afternoon. Dechani was his joy, and no English traveller had been allowed to go there for twelve or fifteen years. Though my interest in the churches of the Patriarchia pleased him much, "You must see Dechani," was his constant cry, and he spared no pains to get me there. But my passport had been taken off to the Sud (police bureau) by the zaptieh, and without a passport even a three hours' ride was, I was told, an impossibility. It is one thing to give up a passport and quite another thing to get it back. It was a Friday, moreover, the Turkish holy day, and the passport department refused to act till the evening. I proposed to employ the afternoon by a walk through Pech, and evoked a chorus of dismay and horror. Radovan said briefly, "It is better that thou goest not"; the monastery people prayed me not to go. And the reason was "the Nizams." It was Friday, and the streets would be full of them. The fear of the Christians as to the fate of a woman among Nizams off duty amounted to terror; they offered instead to take me up a little hill sos whence I could see the town in safety. They would not hear of my going to town with only one protector, and as, in event of " a row," the blame would probably fall most heavily upon any local Christian mixed up in it, I gave up my plan reluctantly. Now the Nizams were part of the much-vaunted Austro-Russian reform scheme, and were supposed to be there in the interests of the Christian population. The story of Old Servia is one of uninterrupted misery. The suffering...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Through the Lands of the Serb I should not advise you to go to Montenegro - a most mischievous race. And what about Bosnia and the Herzegovina? Oh, you will be quite safe there; we govern that. They are a bad lot, though! But we don't stand any nonsense. Thus either party seizes upon the stranger and tries to prevent his views being prejudiced. He seldom has need to complain that he has heard one side only; but there is a Catholic side, an Orthodox side, a Mohammedan side, there are German, Slav, Italian, Turkish, and Albanian sides and when he has heard them all he feels far less capable of forming an Opinion on the Eastern Question than he did before. Dalmatia has its charms, but tourists swarm there, and the picturesque corners are being rapidly pulled down to provide suitable accommodation for them. Let us pass on, then, nor pause till we have wound our way through that wonderful maze of fiords, the Bocche, and landed on the quay at Cattaro. Cattaro is a tiny, greatly coveted, much-fought-for town. The natural port for Montenegro but the property of Austria, it Swelters, breathless, on a strip of shore, with the waters in front of it, and the great wall of the Black Mountain rising sheer up behind. Its heart's in the Highlands, but the enemy holds it as a garrison town the Austrian army pervades the neighbourhood, and a big fort, lurking Opposite, commands the one road from mountain to coast. Cattaro, after all, is only a half way house to Montenegro, and this is why Austria lavishes so many troops. Upon it.
