This big, lucidly written and fact filled book admirably achieves its purpose…Anyone who enjoyed Norman Davies’s blockbuster histories of Europe and “The Isles” will recognise the same qualities in this book: a gift for broad exposition, a marvellous eye for quirky but revelatory details, and, above all, a willingless to question the categories of traditional history, wherever they may come from. This history of Silesia’s is more than fascinating tale in its own right, tells the story of the city across the centuries. While not neglecting ethnic hatred and folly, the book is a hymn to diversity and cultural achievement, pp.585, paperback
