Bloodlands

Timothy Snyder's 'Bloodlands: Europe Between Hitler and Stalin' — a groundbreaking history of the 14 million civilians murdered by the Nazi and Soviet regimes in Eastern Europe between 1933 and 1945. Spanning the Soviet famines, the Great Terror, the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, the Holocaust, Nazi death factories, ethnic cleansings, and Stalinist anti-Semitism. A masterwork that reframes our understanding of 20th century mass murder by placing the victims — not the ideologies — at the center of the story.
