"This book is a moving account of the enduring legacy left in Italy and elsewhere by George Mosse, one of the great historians of our times. When he died in 1999, we lost an inspirational figure, one of the last of the gentlemen scholars of central Europe. Anyone interested in European history and historians should read this book." - Jay Winter, Charles J. Stille Professor of History, Yale University, USA"This new volume impressively extends the range and diversity of 'Mosse studies,' with new analysis of his early work, the relations with Italian historians and historiography, and other themes, adding significant new insights." - Stanley Payne, Professor Emeritus of History, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA
