"An evocative re-creation of the European political climate of the 1930s . . . Large does a fine job of connecting these events." ― Kirkus Reviews A collection of essays on various incidents of European history that occurred in the 1930s which build up an image of Europe on the brink. Episodes are linked to illustrate this, such as the Stavinsky affair in France, the murder of Ernst Roehm, and the civil war in the red quarters of Vienna.
