Why read it?
1 author picked The Transformation of European Politics 1763-1848 as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This masterful analysis of European foreign policy encompasses a period slightly larger than the life of Napoleon, but the core of the book is the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic wars. On first reading this I was struck not only by the depth and breadth of Schroeder’s knowledge, but also by his uncanny ability to question standard interpretations and to present an original and oftentimes provocative evaluation. This book made me think about how best to write history. Elegantly written, this is an accomplished tome that will be read by students of foreign policy for many years to come.
From Philip's list on The best books about the Napoleonic Wars and their impact on Europe.
