Almost forty years after its first appearance, Hobsbawm's study of
the two generations between the French Revolution and the mass
uprisings of the mid 19th century remains the best account of
European life in this formative period. Written with verve and full
of incisive judgements, the book surveys the political upheavals
which spawned democratic government, the demographic growth and
industrial revolutions which gave rise to international capitalist
economies, and the developments in religion and science, literature
and the arts which heralded the modern world. This is the work of a
great historian at the height of his powers and is a must for
anyone interested in the history of Europe. (Kirkus UK)
Eric Hobsbawm traces with brilliant anlytical clarity the
transformation brought about in evry sphere of European life by the
Dual revolution - the 1789 French revolution and the Industrial
Revolution that originated in Britain. This enthralling and
original account highlights the significant sixty years when
industrial capitalism established itself in Western Europe and when
Europe established the domination over the rest of the world it was
to hold for half a century.
