Europe

Description: Books about Europe, as a whole and its countries, also history. Even if Europe is only described in a major part.
The UK and Poland are excluded, as they have separate lists. You can add everything, let's make it a long list.
Some Polish books are included because I'm in Poland.
This list is only a stub.
