“Impressive . . . Mr. Judt writes with enormous authority.”
—The Wall Street Journal

“Magisterial . . . It is, without a doubt, the most comprehensive, authoritative, and yes, readable postwar history.”
—The Boston Globe

Almost a decade in the making, this much-anticipated grand history of postwar Europe from one of the world’s most esteemed historians and intellectuals is a singular achievement. “Postwar” is the first modern history that covers all of Europe, both east and west, drawing on research in six languages to sweep readers through thirty-four nations and sixty years of political and cultural change-all in one integrated, enthralling narrative. Both intellectually ambitious and compelling to read, thrilling in its scope and delightful in its small details, “Postwar” is a rare joy.

Judt’s book, “Ill Fares the Land”, republished in 2021 featuring a new preface by bestselling author of “Between the World and Me” and “The Water Dancer,” Ta-Nehisi Coates.
