Nineteenth-Century Europe by Michael Rapport

A core introductory textbook that provides students with an overview of the key issues in Europe's 'long nineteenth century', from the French Revolution in 1789 until the outbreak of the First World War in 1914. Telling the story of how Europeans entered politics in the fiery trials of revolution and industrialization, the text opens with the French Revolution, passes through the crucible of the 1848 Revolutions and ends with the emergence of mass movements - socialist, revolutionary, nationalist and authoritarian - which anticipated those of the twentieth century. This is an ideal text for modules on Modern European History or Nineteenth-Century Europe which may be offered at all levels of an undergraduate History or European Studies degree. In addition it is a crucial resource for students who may be studying nineteenth-century Europe for the first time as part of a taught postgraduate degree in Modern History or European Studies.
"'Coherently laid out, well written, intelligent and very comprehensive' - Woodruff Smith, University of Massachusetts Boston, USA 'An Impressive volume: broad, admirably balanced and genuinely European.' - Christopher Clark, St Catharine's College, Cambridge, UK"
