A major historical survey of Romani populations in Europe, Angus Fraser’s *The Gypsies* traces patterns of migration, settlement, persecution, social regulation, and cultural representation from the early movement of Romani groups westward to the modern period. Drawing on historical documentation from multiple European contexts, the book is particularly valuable for diachronic research into changing state policies and majority attitudes toward Roma, while also reflecting the terminology and historiographical frameworks current at the time of its publication.
