According to the publishing company, the book by Anna Di Lellio, called “Battle for Kosovo, 1389: An Albanian Epic”, offers a “fantastic story of Murat’s attack on Kosovo and the murder of Murat by Albanian knight Millosh Kopiliq.” Book depicts Serb medieval hero as "Albanian knight" In a presentation of the book on the internet, the publisher explains "that Millosh Kopiliq is more often presented from the Serbian perspective, which extols particularly the valor of the Serb knight Milos Obilic" but that their book offers a “better nuanced story for understanding this strong myth of nationalism and belonging”. In the introduction, the publisher states that "the Battle of Kosovo has great symbolism for the formation of the modern Balkan states, especially the nationalist spheres of the South Slavs and Serbs". According to the author’s biography, Lellio is a guest professor on a masters program of international cooperation at New School University in New York, and works at the Kosovo Institute for Journalism and Communication in Pristina. The publishing house, which is an English-American company founded in 1843, publishes books mainly in the field of social sciences.
