Shortest History of Europe "The Shortest History of Europe"
John Hirst
150 pp., Black Inc., Melbourne, 2009


Recently retired as Reader in History at La Trobe University, John Hirst has just published this delightful gem. The back cover blurb gives something of the flavour: ‘Chinese civilisation was for a long period more advanced than European. From China, Europe acquired printing, paper-making, the compass, gunpowder and locks for canals. Yet it was in Europe that steady economic growth first occurred and then the Industrial Revolution. And it was in Europe that representative government and individual rights, those other hallmarks of modernity, first developed. What is it about Europe?’.

At a time when national curriculum discussion is attempting to shift the focus from our European heritage to our Asian future, it is a very topical question. John’s answer is concise, highly engaging, remarkably well illustrated in a black and white paperback and thought provoking. This book should be read by anyone teaching history at any level.
