Shortlisted for the Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction (2006), the Pulitzer Prize for General Nonfiction (2006), and the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for History (2005).

Postwar won the Council on Foreign Relations Arthur Ross Book Award and was one of the New York Times's 100 Best Books of the 21st Century. 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.
