Fascinating, informative, sometimes exhilarating, often painful, and quite impossible to summarise... This is a splendidly panoramic picture of our common European home, a book to read through and then to dip into frequently... I thoroughly recommend his book
Allan Massie, Literary Review
A broader travelling history of the whole of Europe's 20th century
Economist
His genius as a historian is his instinct for human stories... At moments in this monumental work... Mak is the history teacher everyone should have had
Financial Times
Everywhere he goes, Mak is quietly ruthless in unmasking the acts of forgetting, selective amnesia, myth-making and historical obfuscation that persist...Mak is a truly cosmopolitan chronicler of shame and self-deceptions
Independent
Part masterpiece... breathtaking invention
Jan Morris, The Times
An ingenious geographical-chronological structure... It's impossible not to get drawn into this book -
