Silber and Little pretty much wrote the primer, so you've got a good foundation - I can recommend the following to flesh things out:

The Serbs by Judah
Blood and Vengeance by Sudetic

Judah takes on the macro view and helps explain the historical underpinnings of the war while Sudetic concentrates upon the conflict in Eastern Bosnia around Srebrenica, which turned out to be the turning point of events in the Balkans.

Thanks. The Glenny book covering 1803-1999 also does a good job of explaining the macro. I'll pick up the Judah book and the other one. Are they written from a particular "partisan" point of view.

Still, the next book in my queue is "Master of the Senate" by Robert Caro, but those 2 will be right after it. Appreciate the insight.
