Who are the Europeans? Where did they come from? In recent years scientific advances have yielded a mass of new data, turning accepted ideas upside down. Here Jean Manco weaves the multiple strands of the very latest genetic evidence with archaeology, history, and linguistics to produce a startling new history of Europe. He fast-paced narrative is illustrated with numerous specially commissioned maps and diagrams showing the movements of people, the spread of languages and DNA distributions, as well as photographs and drawings.
