this much-anticipated grand history of postwar Europe from one of the world's most esteemed
historians and intellectuals is a singular achievement. Postwar is the first modern history
that covers all of Europe both east and west drawing on research in six languages to sweep
readers through thirty-four nations and sixty years of political and cultural change-all in one
integrated enthralling narrative. Both intellectually ambitious and compelling to read
thrilling in its scope and delightful in its small details Postwar is a rare joy.
