The Expansion of Europe, Vol. 2 of 2 (Classic Reprint): A History of the Foundations of the Modern World - Couverture souple
Synopsis
Global history of imperial power and empire building that shaped the modern world.
This volume surveys how Europe’s search for colonies, trade routes, and strategic advantage reshaped the globe from the 17th through the 18th centuries. It shows how wars in Europe mirrored clashes for influence in India, the Americas, and beyond, and how naval power, diplomacy, and economic policy altered the balance of world powers.
Readers encounter a continental and transoceanic narrative that links the rise of Prussia, the ambitions of France and England, and the turning points in colonial North America, India, and the Atlantic world. The book presents complex alliances, dramatic battles, and the social and intellectual currents that drove these transformations.
- Clear, chronological account of major wars, treaties, and shifts in power that defined early modern imperial politics.
- Profiles of key actors from both sides of the Atlantic, including colonial administrators, merchants, and statesmen.
- Analysis of how colonial affairs increasingly influenced European strategy and vice versa.
- Context for cultural, intellectual, and economic changes that accompanied political upheaval.
Ideal for readers of world history, students studying early modern empires, and anyone seeking a thorough, accessible account of how Europe laid the foundations of the modern world.
