Textbooky but awesome Has a nice balance of fact thematic crap nationalism imperialism blather and a surprising amount on the arts and culture of this period which is a welcome change
Very clearly organized; informative and well written overall
Winks analyzed ideological and material factors contributing to European modernity which he defined as nation industry democracy and progress This period entails dramatic turbulence which I in 2016 can relate to Some history is brutal but looking from a distance makes me appreciate the strength of humanity dialectical POV of history?
Great and informative history of 19th century Europe
Meh European history This book was ok if that's your thing
