Europe: The Struggle for Supremacy, 1453 to the Present

This is Brendan Simms` formidable, game-changing history of Europe. In this marvelously ambitious and exciting book, Brendan Simms tells the story of Europe`s constantly shifting geopolitics and the peculiar circumstances that have made it both so impossible to dominate, but also so dynamic and ferocious. It is the story of a group of highly competitive and mutually suspicious dynasties, but also of a continent uniquely prone to interference from `semi-detached` elements, such as Russia, the Ottoman Empire, Britain and (just as centrally to Simms`s argument) the United States.
