In the face of nearly impossible odds, the people of Greece rose up against Sultan Mahmud II and took on the might of the imperial Ottoman armed forces, its Turkish cavalrymen, Albanian foot soldiers, and the fearsome Egyptians. Despite the most terrible disasters, they held on until military intervention by Russia, France, and Britain finally secured the kingdom of Greece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMazower brilliantly brings together the different strands of the story. He takes us into the stories of revolutionary conspirators and besieged towns, itinerant priests and slaves, and defenceless women and children struggling to stay alive amid a conflict of extraordinary brutality. This is a story of how statesmen came to terms with an even more powerful force than themselves—the force of nationalism. Above all, it is a book about how people decided to see their world differently and, at an often terrible cost to themselves and their families, changed history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45695754633452,"sku":"9780141978741","price":40.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780141978741.jpg?v=1725639574"},{"product_id":"what-you-did-not-tell-by-mark-mazower-9780141986845","title":"What You Did Not Tell","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"book-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA family memoir, encompassing some of the most fascinating aspects of twentieth-century European history, from the acclaimed author of \u003cem\u003eDark Continent\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUncovering his family's remarkable and moving stories, Mark Mazower recounts the sacrifices and silences that marked a generation and their descendants.

Such threats culminated in the nightmare of Nazi Germany and the Holocaust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe landscape is very different now, as Mark Mazower argues in this piercingly brilliant book.
