Europe endured such incessant political discord throughout the
twentieth century that some historians refer to the period's
conflicts as the Long War. During the Balkan wars of 1912--1913,
regional fighting in southeastern Europe ignited conflict across
the continent that continued through both world wars and the Cold
War. In Consumed by War: European Conflict in the 20th Century,
Richard C. Hall illuminates the complex diplomatic and military
struggles of a region whose instability, rooted in a
nineteenth-century nationalistic fervor, provided a catalyst for
the political events that ensued. From the assassination of
Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914 to the incarceration of Radovan
Karadzic in 2008, this narrative history appeals to general readers
and scholars interested in a fresh interpretation of a complicated
and brutal era.
