Reviews

We know there are Germans, Italians, Spaniards and Poles--but are there Europeans? Yes, at least one: Timothy Garton Ash. Homelands is the brilliant, captivating story of how he became one. --Mark Lilla, author of The Once and Future Liberal This book, from a man who had a front-row seat to much of the history he describes, draws on his experiences and those of his friends to bring events to vivid life. --M. E. Sarotte, author of Not One Inch Garton Ash deftly combines scholarship, journalistic experience, and personal observations and stories in Homelands. He offers an intellectual's history with a popular touch that is both delightful and thought-provoking. --Robert B. Zoellick, author of America in the World: A History of U.S. Diplomacy and Foreign Policy Garton Ash has carved out a unique niche as a 'historian of the present.' Homelands combines his eye-witness account of Europe's evolution with his keen historical insight to offer an innovative and compelling book. --Charles A. Kupchan, Georgetown University and Council on Foreign Relations, author of Isolationism
