Harry Redner, "The Tragedy of European Civilization: Towards an Intellectual History of the Twentieth Century"
English | ISBN: 1412857112 | 2015 | 282 pages | EPUB | 725 KB

The tragedy of European civilization is a protracted historical event spanning the twentieth century and in many ways is ongoing.
