- Synopsis
- The book is still designed to set forth the modern history of Europe and European civilization as a unit, and in its later chapters attempts to tell the story of an integrated, or at least interconnected, world. Emphasis falls on situations and movements of international scope, or on what Europeans and their descendants have done and faced in common. National histories are therefore somewhat subordinated, and in each national history the points of contact with a larger civilization are most fully treated. Historic regional differences within Europe, as between East and West, are brought out, and the history of the Americas is woven into the story at various points, as are developments of the last century in Asia and Africa.
