British Policy and Opinion During, the Franco-Prussian War (Classic Reprint)

ISBN: 9781330788172
Category : History

Pages : 440
Book Description
Excerpt from British Policy and Opinion During, the Franco-Prussian War This study is the development of a master's thesis written at the University of Texas under Professor Thad Weed Riker. The author takes this opportunity of thanking him for his help at that time and for his suggestion of a subject that has afforded her sustained interest and enjoyment. She wishes to acknowledge very gratefully the assistance of Professor Charles Downer Hazen, under whose guidance the research was conducted for two years at Columbia. Through his introduction she was enabled to use the very excellent collection of British periodicals and newspapers in the Boston Athenaeum and was incidentally given the pleasure of working in the most delightful library it has been her privilege to enter. The burden of proof reading has fallen to Professor Carlton Hayes, whose skillful care in this particular the author much appreciates. Though examination has been made of the files of the New York and the Boston Public Libraries, the Library of Congress, and the Libraries of Columbia, Harvard, and the University of Texas, the author is aware that much interesting material on the subject remains untouched across the Atlantic. That valuable collection of extracts from the British Press which is entitled Public Opinion has been extensively drawn upon to supply the lack of papers not available in this country. Biographies and memoirs of the period are constantly making their appearance and, barring the adoption of the loose-leaf system of certain encyclopaedias, it would not be possible, even in England, to make the work definitive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.

The Austro-Prussian War
Author: Geoffrey Wawro
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 9780521629515
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 334
Book Description
This is a history of the Austro-Prussian-Italian War of 1866, which paved the way for German and Italian unification. It is based upon extensive new research in the state and military archives of Austria, Germany, and Italy. Geoffrey Wawro describes Prussia's successful invasion of Habsburg Venetia, and the wretched collapse of the Austrian army in July 1866. Although the book gives a thorough accounting of both the Prussian and Italian war efforts, it is most notable for the light it sheds on the Austrians. Through painstaking archival research, Wawro reconstructs the Austrian campaign, blow-by-blow, hour-by-hour. Blending military and social history, he describes the terror and panic that overtook Austria's regiments of the line in each clash with the Prussians. He reveals the unconscionable blundering of the Austrian commandant and his chief deputies who fumbled away key strategic advantages and ultimately lost a war - crucial to the fortunes of the Habsburg Monarchy - that most European pundits had predicted they would win.
