BLOODLANDS by Timothy Snyder (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).“[A] brave and original history of mass killing in the twentieth century.” (New York Review of Books)The scale of destruction in the lands between Germany and Russia has eluded historians and baffles the cynicism of our new century, but Tim Snyder, one of America’s foremost historians of Eastern Europe, has written a new history that focuses on the worst crimes of Hitler and Stalin on the battleground of Eastern Europe. He pays special attention to the sources left by those who were killed: letters home, notes flung from trains, and diaries found on corpses.Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing.

Based upon scholarly literature and primary sources in all of the relevant languages, Bloodlands pays special attention to the sources left by those who were killed: letters home, notes flung from trains, and diaries found on corpses. The scale of destruction in the lands between Germany and Russia has eluded historians and baffles the cynicism of our new century, but for these reasons, Bloodlands offers the way forward to a sensible reconstruction of European history.
