"Faced with difficult problems, of selection and emphasis, the Thor has made a new and interesting synthesis of familiar materials and has carried out the aims of the series in a highly creditable manner." - C. P. I he American Political Science Review "These two histories [Reaction and Revolution and Crane Brenton's A Decade of Revolution] are parts only of a twenty- volume work entitled The Rise of Modern Europe. If the other volumes come to anywhere near either of these two in profundity of scholarship and clarity of exposition no historian will be able to do without the complete series. The bibliographical notes at the end of each book are invaluable, and a remarkably interesting collection of contemporary reproductions are included. These histories are very highly recommended, indeed, both to students and the general reader." - Richard Strachey, The New Statesman and Nation
