One of those great books. . . It deserves the greatest possible readership.
The Times
Books of real quality and importance are rare. Norman Davies's history of Europe is one of them. It is a brilliant achievement, written with intelligence, lucidity and a breathtaking width of knowledge. . . This is a book everyone should read.
A. C. Grayling, Financial Times
A noble monument of scholarship, and all the more noble because it is so full of surprise and feeling. . . There are superb assessments of vastly daunting subjects.
Jan Morris, Independent
It brims with learning, crackles with common sense, coruscates with wit and abounds in good judgement.
Felipe Fernandez-Armesto, Sunday Times
Monumental, authoritative. . . A book for enquiring minds of all ages, it will answer hundreds of enquires and provoke thousands more.
Noel Malcolm, Sunday Telegraph
No history of Europe in the English language has been so even-handed in its treatment of east and west. . . Strong characterisation, vivid detail, trenchant opinions, cogent anaylsis all make this tremendous reading.
