内容説明
A fun, informative guide to Europe's past and present. The history of Europe is rich, complex, vibrant, and at times violent; it has influenced many countries throughout the world and has itself been influenced by many countries. In the light hearted "European History For Dummies", historian Sean Lang explores the countries, conflicts, people, institutions, disasters, and triumphs that have helped shape modern day Europe, packing in tons of facts alongside the fun. The chapters range from "Celts without Kilts" and "What a Way to Run a Republic!" to "I Capture Quite a Few Castles," "Reformation Ruckus," and "The War to End All Wars." Sean Lang, the author of "British History For Dummies" (0-7645-7021-8), is also a history lecturer, examiner, and writer.
