Being on another hemisphere, It is smart to check the atlas when describing the scope of your research. From Italy to Sweden? You mean they exclude Norway? I think not. Next, they define their scope as 'from Scotland to Sicily'. Which excludes the whole Eastern part of Europe. But soon it becomes clear they should have said 'Crete', as it is 1000 kilometer farther to the East, and they do include the East.

Reading a history of Europe throws me for a loop in the Preface. No, my first jolt of confusion was Table of Contents. They mention The Empire at several places and I think: Which emperor? Napoleon, Ceasar, Otto, who? Turns out, they mean the Brits. Who never ruled Europe. The writers are Canadian, and forgot Europeans will read their book about Europe.
