History in Fragments, A: Europe in the Twentieth Century

London: Little, Brown and Company, 2000. Book. Fine. Hardcover. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Hardcover in publisher's non price-clipped dust-jacket. 724 pages. Bibliographic References, Index. Illustrated with photographs. First British edition. A truly 21st century revisionist history seeking to delve beneath the larger macro-historical labels of East vs West, Communism vs Capitalism and violence vs prosperity [referring to pre and post world views of using 1945 as a demarcation line]. Not purporting to be a comprehensive history of the century, the author never-the-less provided flashes of insight into Europe's complexities, no often over-looked. No previous ownership marks. A clean, square, fresh and unmarked copy. Dust-jacket has small blemish to laminate on lower spine. Fine in a near fine dust-jacket. .
