An Economist Best Book of the Year "Sweeping . . . an ambitious synthesis . . . Evans] writes with admirable narrative power and possesses a wonderful eye for local color . . . Fascinating."--Stephen Schuker, The Wall Street JournalFrom the bestselling author of The Third Reich at War, a masterly account of Europe in the age of its global hegemony; the latest volume in the Penguin History of Europe series
Richard J. Evans, bestselling historian of Nazi Germany, returns with a monumental new addition to the acclaimed Penguin History of Europe series, covering the period from the fall of Napoleon to the outbreak of World War I. Evans's gripping narrative ranges across a century of social and national conflicts, from the revolutions of 1830 and 1848 to the unification of both Germany and Italy, from the Russo-Turkish wars to the Balkan upheavals that brought this era of relative peace and growing prosperity to an end. Among the great themes it discusses are the decline of religious belief and the rise of secular science and medicine, the journey of art, music, and literature from Romanticism to Modernism, the replacement of old-regime punishments by the modern prison, the end of aristocratic domination and the emergence of industrial society, and the dramatic struggle of feminists for women's equality and emancipation. Uniting the era's broad-ranging transformations was the pursuit of power in all segments of life, from the banker striving for economic power to the serf seeking to escape the power of his landlord, from the engineer asserting society's power over the environment to the psychiatrist attempting to exert science's power over human nature itself.
The first single-volume history of the century, this comprehensive and sweeping account gives the reader a magnificently human picture of Europe in the age when it dominated the rest of the globe.

Quiet, powerful, and very easy to use
Color: Black, Color: Black
Very convenient and stylish milk frother. I use it every day for coffee and matcha — the foam becomes thick in just a few seconds. It works quietly, holds a charge well, and the wireless design with USB charging is very convenient. The handle is lightweight and comfortable to hold. Great value for making café-style drinks at home.

Powerful and good battery life
Color: Black
I’ve been really happy with this rechargeable milk frother. It works great for making cappuccinos, lattes, and even matcha and hot chocolate. The dual spring whisk creates a nice, creamy foam very quickly, much better than I expected for such a compact device.
I also like that it’s rechargeable, so I don’t have to constantly buy or replace batteries. The battery life is solid and it holds a charge well. It’s lightweight, easy to handle, and doesn’t take up much space in the kitchen, which makes it perfect for daily use.

Powerful
Color: Black, Color: Black
I love it because it doesn’t use batteries — you just recharge it and that’s it. Plus, it’s very powerful and works really well. Honestly, I didn’t expect it to be this good. Great option and excellent value for the price.

Good product
Color: Black
Good product I like that it’s rechargeable. The only thing I don’t like is that there’s no power button. You have to press it while in use.
