Summary
The Age of Revolution: How Europe Transformed the World
Eric Hobsbawm traces the transformation brought about in every sphere of European life by the dual revolution - the 1789 French revolution and the Industrial Revolution that originated in Britain. This original account highlights the significant 60 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.
