The House of Hemp and Butter: A History of Old Riga

Founded as an ecclesiastical center and trading hub, Riga was Old Livonia's greatest city and its indispensable port. O’Connor begins in the twelfth century with the arrival of German priests, traders, and knights, who conquered the indigenous tribes. This is an indispensable guide to a quintessentially European city located in one of the continent's more remote corners.
