Europe: A HistoryPaperback, 20 January 1998

"Europe" is a magisterial work, sweeping in its analysis, illuminating in its insights and erudite in its scholarship."

"Europe" brims with learning, crackles with common sense, coruscates with wit and abounds in good judgement."

"A master of broad-brushstroke analysis, Davies navigates through the larger historical currents with the detail necessary to a well-written engaging narrative."
-- "Publishers Weekly" (starred review)
