Rezensionen

"Still, this efficient and useful survey reminds scholars that we should indeed continue to re-evaluate how we tell the story of the modern European world and its making." (European History Quarterly, 1 April 2015)

"His book offers a good introductory survey for first-year undergraduates, with a clear, relatively comprehensive, political narrative. This will provide students with a platform for more advanced studies and/or reading." (Journal of European Studies, 14 November 2012)
