The Age of Empire - A History of Europe from 1792 - 1898 (Illustrated)

The Age of Empire, a history of Europe from 1792 to 1898 is a comprehensive look at the critical period of 19th century European history. From the French revolution to the rise and fall of Napoleon, to the supremacy of Metternich and the Italian unification, this is far and away one of the most fascinating historical periods, ultimately coalescing into the disaster that was World War I. Covering the political, military, and social events that made this transformational period so intriguing, Fyffe concludes his historical masterpiece with the rise of one of the most significant figures to ever enter into the corridors of power: Bismarck.
