They were the Emperor's exotics and the youngest regiments in the Imperial and Royal Army. The Bosniaks, formed in Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1882, not only made a name for themselves as a Muslim European military unit. During the First World War, they also earned a reputation as loyal and fearless fighters for crown and empire. To this day, their memory is cherished by all Bosnians. Now the standard work on their history is finally available again - and at the same time a brilliant testimony to successful Muslim-European integration!
