Product Description

Here is an excellent introductory text to the major events of European history from 1815 to 2000, complemented with over 50 two-colour maps. The new material takes us from 1980 to 2000 and covers a range of issues from population growth to the conflict in the former Yugoslavia. The highly successful McEvedy formula of succinct, readable text combined with (completely new) maps for each spread is followed here.

informative4
this book is very informative which I really liked about, with lots of maps showing the changes that took place in Europe from 1815, I learned a lot from reading this and I think others could, there is a lot of information packed into such a small book. really good, however, it does get into a bit of a format of everything two pages being similar to the last, that is it's always map on one page writing opposite, which is the whole format for the book.
