Seventeenth Century Europe, 1598-1700 Summary

Seventeenth Century Europe, 1598-1700 by Thomas Munck

'...Munck has produced a highly integrated comparative synthesis which is all the more welcome for its inclusion of so much material from northern Europe. Confronting the main historiographical arguments in a positive manner, this is bound to become the standard survey of the period for some time.' History Today
