From 1250 to 1795 Lithuania covered a vast area of eastern and central Europe. Until 1387 the country was pagan. How this huge state came to expand; defend itself against western European crusaders and play a conspicuous part in European life are the main subjects of this book. Chapters are devoted to the types of sources used; to the religion of the ancient Balts (and the discovery of a pagan temple in Vilnius in the late 1980s); and to Lithuanian relations and wars with Poland and the Germans. Under Grand Duke Gediminas; Lithuania came to control more of Russia than the prince of Moscow.
