- This book examines the modern history of the city of Sarajevo through the lens of the iconic Holiday Inn hotel, which became notorious during the 1992-95 Bosnian war (and the siege of Sarajevo) as a frontline hotel base for foreign correspondents.The book is 100,000 words long and is the culmination of three years of research, largely conducted in Bosnia & Herzegovina. It includes extensive interviews with participants – staff (past and present) and journalists, and draws on contemporary newpaper reports from the archives of the Bosnian newspapers Oslobodjenje, Ratni Dani, Slobodna Bosna and Dani.
