Hi hope you are doing fine....
If you don't have anyback ground in history in would not recommend you to opt for european history.Whatever anyone says,it is a specialized field it contains the history of a whole continent and events occuring in one country are linked to another and therefore have effect on other countries.
so if you have studied E.H in bachelors than its fine go for it...Otherwise go for islamic history....
its your own choice...

[B]if you want to go for E.H then go for these books....[/B]

1.European History by V.D.MAHAJAN( although this book is not of high standard it helps a novice to get to know european history)

2.Europe since Napoleon by David Thomson.

3.European History by C.D.HAZEN.(very good book but hard to find).

[B]If your going for Islamic History then go for these books...[/B]

1.History of saracens by S.Ameer Ali

2.Islamic History by Mazhar-ul-haq

3.Islamic History by k.Ali...


[B]@Great joia...

you are right to question that if european history is so easy why are the students getting marks in the range of 60-80??

the answer is that from the last two years the examiner has been changed and the paper in not like past papers.It is rather a specialized paper and only those students who has deep study in european history could do well rest failed miserably to do well.[/B]

so will not recommend a novice to opt for european history atleast till the current examiner continues.

Dear Mr. Mehsud, you have secured excellent marks in European History despite the fact that the 2007 paper was the most difficult one i have ever seen in css. Kindly recommend me books that you feel will accrue me more marks in European History.
I will be really thankful to you.

Hi
The books posted by me in this thread are enough to solve your problem but only if you really go through them well.Try to develop analytical style as the question these dayz are of this type.And stick to good books don;t go for raghubir dayal etc...
