Marc Ferro (born 24 December 1924 in Paris) was a French historian. He worked on early twentieth-century European history, specialising in the history of Russia and the USSR, as well as the history of cinema.
He was Director of Studies in Social Sciences at the École des hautes études en sciences sociales. He was a co-director of the French review Annales and co-editor of the Journal of Contemporary History.
He also directed and presented television documentaries on the rise of the Nazis, Lenin and the Russian revolution, and on the representation of history in cinema.
Absolutely a must read. It has made me rethink some of my revisionist views on colonialism, I may circle back to adopting the orthodox position. I'm about half way through this thousand page behemoth, but it reads very quickly, 9 days of moderate reading should suffice from beginning to end. A journal at hand to keep track of things is probably needed too.
