Dark Continent

Europe's Twentieth Century




Award-winning historian Mark Mazower retells the story of a century of division, charting the struggles of rival ideologies to create a new world order for mankind

Dark Continent is a searching history of Europe's most brutal century. Stripping away the comforting myths and illusions that we have grown up with since the Second World War, Mark Mazower presents an unflinching account of a continent locked in a finely balanced struggle between tolerance and racial extermination, imperial ambition and national self-determination, liberty and the tyrannies of Right and Left.
