Summary of Gypsies: An Illustrated History, 2nd Edition DISTRIBUTION CANCELLED
The Gypsies have always been subject to myths about their origins, customs and social organization, in large part because of widespread ignorance. In this lively and informative book, Jean-Pierre Liégeois redresses this shortcoming with this fascinating illustrated survey. Starting with an examination of many of the legends about Gypsies throughout history, he goes on to trace their true origins and presents a sympathetic though not uncritical portrayal them. Finally, he discusses recent attempts by Gypsies to organize internationally.
