A landmark work of twentieth-century European history, From Sarajevo to Potsdam chronicles the turbulent arc of European civilisation from the assassination that ignited the First World War in 1914 to the Potsdam Conference of 1945 that reshaped the post-war world. Written with the razor-sharp clarity and provocative authority that defined A. J. P. Taylor's career, the book presents a sweeping yet incisive account of the political upheavals, military catastrophes, and ideological conflicts that defined the era. Taylor argues that the forces of nationalism, imperialism, and great-power rivalry were not isolated phenomena but deeply interconnected threads woven through three decades of European self-destruction. Richly illustrated with 187 photographs and images — 16 in colour — as part of the prestigious Library of European Civilisation series, it combines visual immediacy with Taylor's trademark narrative brilliance to produce an accessible yet authoritative historical account.
