The Austro-Hungarian Empire by Diarmuid Jeffreys
Although only in existence for 51 years (1867-1918), the Austro-Hungarian Empire has played a momentous part in European and world history. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand by a Serbian nationalist sparked off World War I - and the history of Balkan nationalism in a region then dubbed "the powder keg of Europe", which is of particular relevance today.
Diarmuid Jeffreys is a writer, journalist and television producer who has made current affairs and documentary programmes for BBC TV, Channel 4 and others, including Newsnight and The Money Programme. He is also the author of The Bureau: Inside the Modern FBI and Aspirin: The Story of a Wonder Drug, which was longlisted for the 2005 Aventis Science Book Prize.
