Postwar: A History of Europe Since 1945 by Tony Judt

4.0

This 900 page book is a great achievment. Tony Judt writes best on the countries he knows best: France, Britain and Czechoslovakia. The recurring theme is the communist takeover of eastern Europe came about and how left wing politicians and intellectuals debated how to find a middle ground between the US and Soviet models of society.
