Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

'This is a rich and ambitious book. Its purpose is to put into focus developments throughout the world in the age of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars and their aftermath. It offers a radically different interpretation from generally accepted theories about the history of the world for this period.' The Times Literary Supplement

Reseña del editor:

In this impressive and ambitious survey Dr Bayly studies the rise, apogee and decline of what has come to be called `the Second British Empire' -- the great expansion of British dominion overseas (particularly in Asia and the Middle East) during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic era that, coming between the loss of America and the subsequent partition of Africa, constitutes the central phase of British imperial history.
