A Short History of Europe by Gordon Kerr
The fascinating history of a continent. From almost the beginning of time, men have harboured aspirations to make the vast territory of Europe one. The Romans came close and a few centuries later, the foundations for a great European state were laid with the creation of the Holy Roman Empire, an empire different to any other in that it enjoyed the approval of God, through the Church in Rome. Napoleon overreached himself in attempting to create a European-wide empire, as did Adolf Hitler. Now, however, Europe is as close as it ever has been to being one entity.
Gordon Kerr worked in bookselling and publishing before becoming a full-time writer. He is the author of several titles including A Short History of Europe, A Short History of Africa, A Short History of China, A Short History of Brazil, A Short History of the First World War, A Short History of the Vietnam War, A Short History of the Middle East, A Short History of Religion and The War That Never Ended. He divides his time between Dorset and Southwest France.
