For students studying history, preparing for exams, writing papers and otherwise engaged in class work, these concise, 'essential' study guides provide just the right amount of information; the brief explanations aren't tedious reading, yet neither do they provide too little information to be of use. Short chapters with sub-headings explore the political, social, cultural, economic and philosophical issues and developments that have made an important impact on history--exactly what the time-pressed student needs. European History 1848-1914 covers Realpolitik, inter-European relations, Capitalism & the New Left, the Age of Bismarck, cultural developments, the coming of WWI and more. 77 pages, softcover.
