Helpful Score: 1

This is an amazing book. Well written and engaging, it brings a pivotal year to life. So much of European history hinged on this year. And we can understand the how and why while reading an entertaining history book. This is not historical fiction. It is a history book, but the writing is so evocative that we see history unfolding. It inspired me to read several other books about the people and places mentioned. A wonderful book!
