'A breathtaking, magisterial panorama, telling the epic story of post-war anarchy, dying empires and rising nation states. It makes us rethink our understanding of Europe's twentieth century' David Motadel, The Times Literary Supplement
For the Western allies 11 November 1918 has always been a solemn date - the end of fighting which had destroyed a generation, and also a vindication of a terrible sacrifice with the total collapse of their principal enemies: the German Empire, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire. But for much of the rest of Europe this was a day with no meaning, as a continuing, nightmarish series of conflicts engulfed country after country. In this highly original, gripping book Robert Gerwarth asks us to think again about the true legacy of the First World War.

'This narrative of continent-wide chaos performs a valuable service by chronicling the postwar turmoil of Europe ... helps us understand why few wars reach tidy conclusions' Max Hastings, Sunday Times
'Reminds us, in vivid and often shocking detail, that only some countries saw killing end on the 11th day of the 11th month ... leaves a sense of foreboding for our own time' Robert Tombs, The Times

Zustand: Muy bueno. : En este libro, Robert Gerwarth nos invita a reconsiderar el verdadero legado de la Primera Guerra Mundial. En gran parte, no fue la lucha en el frente occidental lo que resultó tan ruinoso para el futuro de Europa, sino las devastadoras secuelas, ya que los países de ambos lados del conflicto original fueron asolados por revoluciones, pogromos, expulsiones masivas y otros grandes enfrentamientos militares. En los años inmediatamente posteriores al armisticio, millones morirían en Europa Central, Oriental y Sudoriental antes de que la Unión Soviética y una serie de pequeños estados nuevos, destartalados y exhaustos, llegaran a existir. Fue aquí, en las ruinas de Europa, donde ideologías extremas como el fascismo tomarían forma y, finalmente, emergerían triunfantes en Italia, Alemania y otros lugares.
