Age Of Extremes - The Short Twentieth Century, 1914-1991 - Thryft

Twentieth century's upheavals depicted vividly in history.

"Age Of Extremes could be especially interesting for readers who want to understand the causes and consequences behind the most transformative events of the 20th century. Hobsbawm explains the major political, economic and social developments that have shaped the present world in a very engaging and insightful way. His analysis is thought-provoking and encourages readers to think about the past and future of our world. Although there are some complex historical phenomena described in the book, Hobsbawm contextualizes them in an understandable and compelling manner."
