One of the twentieth century's great humanists and a hugely popular fiction writer, Stefan Zweig's historical works bring the past to life in brilliant technicolor. This collection contains ten typically breathless and erudite dramatizations of some of the most tense and important episodes in human history.
Ten turning points in history, vividly sketched by the great Stefan Zweig, in a new translation by the award-winning Anthea Bell. The first time in print in the UK for over 70 years - it has never been out of print in German, selling more than two million copies.
