An accessible and lively introduction to the Seven Years’ War for students, the book engages experts with arguments on key points of interpretation. This new edition provides fuller attention to the role of Louis XV and to the crucial financial dimensions of the war. The best, one-volume account of the Seven Years’ War available today.’
