The Wiley-Blackwell Dictionary of Modern European History Since 1789

This book has been carefully planned to give a coherent account of the impact of religion in France over the last two hundred years. Most books in English dealing with the subject are now dated, and in any case concentrate on institutional questions of church-state relations rather than on the wider influence of religion throughout France. These essays summarise recent French research and provide a concise up-to-date introduction to the history of modern French Catholicism.

Religion, Society and Politics in France Since 1789

D. J. B. Trim

Leading military historians illuminate the major developments in European warfare during a period of momentous technological, political and military change. The chapters provide a comprehensive overview of warfare across Europe, presenting new findings and ideas that shed light on the art of war, military revolutions, state development and European expansion.

European Warfare, 1350-1750

War and Society in Early Modern Europe takes a fresh approach to military history. Rather than looking at tactics and strategy, it aims to set warfare in social and institutional contexts. Focusing on the early-modern period in western Europe, Frank Tallett gives an insight into the armies and shows how warfare had an impact on different social groups, as well as on the economy and on patterns of settlement.
