A number of essays an Western Austrian regional history add to the picture of a variety of regional histories of Austria. A FORUM an the Allied bombing war in the Tyrol in World War II and a ROUNDTABLE of reviews of John Boyer's magnum opus Austria 1867-1955, along with a number of book reviews, complete the volume.
