0719562996 Review n"* '[An] engaging historical panorama... Vivid and readable... [He] recounts his story in the lucid, unjudgmental diction he has made his own... He makes characteristically deft use of historical comparison... Palmer also has an admirable eye for telling detail' - Christopher Clark, Sunday Telegraph * 'This cauldron of jostling powers is summed up in a single sweep, and in irrestistibly lively style' - Michael Kerrigan, Scotsman * 'With his deep knowledge of European history, Alan Palmer is the ideal guide to the variety, intricacy and drama of Baltic history... Any traveller to the Baltic will take this book and be both instructed and entertained by its broad, fast-flowing panorama' - Sir Martin Gilbert * 'Very well researched and written in a simple, elegant prose style' - The Tablet * 'A story rich in fascinating and formidable characters... Alan Palmer steers a skilful course through this maze of material' - The Spectator * 'A fine example of the skills that have brought him [Palmer] fame and fortune... he handles complex material so logically and elegantly that the reader can easily digest a diet of unfamiliar names and places... grippingly described' - The Economist" Konstantin Eggert, The Tablet n'[Alan Palmer] has proved yet again that in the field of popular history probably his only rival is Sir Martin Gilbert' --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
