This forthcoming volume will join Oxford University Press's successful series of compact, accessible, and insightful guides covering the general history of Europe from ancient times to the present.
Each book in the series offers a clear outline of political history alongside discussions of social and cultural issues; an authoritative narrative that takes the latest historical interpretations into account; support for many different lecture and discussion formats; and chapter summaries, an end-of-book chronology, detailed maps, numerous illustrations, and text boxes with primary source excerpts.
