In the heart of Europe's current crisis, one of the continent's foremost statesmen issues a clarion call to radically remake the European Union in the mold of the United States' own federal government

Europe is caught in its greatest crisis since the Second World War. The catalog of ills seems endless: an economic crisis spread through most of Europe's Mediterranean tier that has crippled Greece and driven a wedge between northern and southern Europe; terrorist attacks in Paris, Cologne, Brussels, and Nice; growing aggression from Russia in Ukraine and the Baltic states; and refugees escaping war-torn neighbors. The European Union's inability to handle any of these disasters was a driving factor in Great Britain voting to leave, and others may soon follow. The result won't just be a continent in turmoil, but also a serious threat to American and British security-the Atlantic, let alone the Channel, simply isn't big enough to keep European troubles in Europe. For everyone's sake, Europe must survive.

The question is how. In Europe's Last Chance, Guy Verhofstadt-former prime minister of Belgium and current leader of the liberal faction in the European Parliament-provides the essential framework for understanding Europe today, laying bare the absurdity of a system in which each member state can veto legislation, opt in or out of the Euro, or close borders on a whim. But Verhofstadt does not just indict the European Union, he also offers a powerful vision for how the continent can change for the better. The key, argues Verhofstadt, is to reform the European Union along the lines of America's federal government: a United States of Europe strong enough to stand with the United States of America in making a better, safer world.

A visionary book from one of today's luminaries of European leadership, Europe's Last Chance is a clarion call to save the European Union, one of the world's greatest chances for peace and prosperity.

This bag shocked me .. in a good way!
Color: Hibiscus in Dark Blue
I have to be honest, when I removed this tote from the packaging, I said ... Nope! Going back! .. I use it for work, I'm a property mgr of many homes-so, giant Keychain, Calender spiral book, chargers, small tools, gadgets, pens, stationary etc, etc. Immediately assumed this wasn't gonna serve me purpose.. I could not have been more wrong .. Never ending pockets, zippered compartments, plenty of room for everything. Sturdy shoulder loops and a shoulder strap as well. The print is EXACTLY as photo choice depicts and it's just a beautiful bag.

Size: Medium, Color: Dark Cappuccino
The dark cappuccino brown is pretty. This is a favorite just because of the color of the tote. The inside lining color makes it easy to find items. I like it so much I ordered the black one.

Super cute… but not what the listing is
Size: One Size, Color: Dark Cappuccino, Size: One Size, Color: Dark Cappuccino
First of all, this listing is entirely inaccurate, as other reviews say, the picture is of a larger bag when in reality you are sent something much smaller and without the small wallet. I wanted the smaller bag, so I ordered it intentionally, but if you are looking for the larger size, do not order this. I included a side by side comparison of the two bags. The lighter bag is the size this listing is supposed to be (that I owned previously) and the smaller one is the one I was sent. That being said the smaller bag is super cute and so similar to the Brooklyn bag! Just be aware that it does not match the listing :)

This purse has a good size for an every day purse. It’s a pretty style purse, and reminds me of the Coach brooklyn shoulder bag. I’m not too crazy about this bag since the material is thin and flimsy, but I should be okay.
