And, in our own century, the terrors of Stalinism and its fascist enemy, striving for control of these colourful and complex shores. ***** In this story of Greeks, Scythians, Samatians, Huns, Goths, Turks, Russians and Poles, we come to know and understand the sea where Europe ended and barbarism was born." ///////////////////////////////////// Charles Neal Ascherson (born 5 October 1932) is a Scottish journalist and writer. He has been described by Radio Prague as "one of Britain's leading experts on central and eastern Europe". Ascherson is the author of several books on the history of Poland and Ukraine. His work has appeared in The Guardian and The New York Review of Books. . . . ***** After graduating Ascherson declined offers to pursue an academic career. Instead, he chose a career in journalism, first at The Manchester Guardian and then at The Scotsman (1959 60; 1975 79), The Observer (1960 75; 1979 90) and The Independent on Sunday (1990 98).[4] He contributed scripts for the documentary series The World at War (1973 74) and the Cold War (1998). He has also been a regular contributor to the London Review of Books. . . . ***** In 1991 Ascherson was awarded an honorary degree from the Open University as Doctor of the University. In 2011 he was elected Honorary Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland. ********** The above text was taken from, respectively, Vintage publishing (via Google Books) and Wikipedia.
