--Peter Burke FBA, Professor of Cultural History, University of Cambridge
"This is no ordinary textbook, but one that can be read and
enjoyed again and again. Thanks to the breadth of the author's
knowledge of the primary and secondary material, even scholars of
the period will continually find new nuggets of information and
fresh insights to set them thinking."
--Laurence Brockliss, Magdalen College, Oxford
"This textbook is witty, lively and provocative. Unlike so many
anglophone historians, Professor Parker thinks Moscow and
Mecklenburg are as interesting as Madrid or Marseilles: this is a
genuinely European history of Europe."
--Robert Frost, King's College, London
"The 2001 version of Europe in Crisis is much more than
the 1979 [edition] with a few additions or amendments: the text has
been revised thoroughly and comprehensively, many passages in the
2001 bear little resemblance to their predecessors, and the
presentation and style of the book are emphatically 'new
millennium' rather than '1970s'... Students and other reders who
came to the period 1598-1648 through Europe in Crisis will
find the new edition equally instructive, enjoyable, enlightening
and essential; it thoroughly deserves the appellation of 'Modern
Classic' and will long remain a standard text." (Reviews in
History)
"The new edition [is] equally instructive, enjoyable,
enlightening and essential; it thoroughly deserves the appellation
of 'modern classic' and will long remain a standard text"
