Description
Discover the fascinating history of Europe's lost realms in this captivating book by Norman Davies.
From the Mediterranean 'Empire of Aragon' to the half-forgotten kingdoms of Burgundy, Davies explores the stories of forgotten nations across the centuries. He sheds light on the rise and fall of empires and republics that once shaped the map of Europe.
With verve, passion and profound empathy, Davies brings to life the multilayered splendours and horrors of Europe's past. This book is a magnificent achievement, brocaded with scholarship and unlikely to be equalled.
