Eric Hobsbawm: A Life in History (gebundenes Buch)

At the time of his death at the age of 95, Eric Hobsbawm (1917-2012) was the most famous historian in the world. His books were translated into more than fifty languages and he was as well known in Brazil and Italy as he was in Britain and the United States. His writings have had a huge and lasting effect on the practice of history. This, the first biography of Eric Hobsbawm, is far more than a study of a professional historian. It is a study of an era.
