Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Summary of Modern History
IN the Ancient History of Europe the scene is occupied alternately by two predominant nations or peoples and for the most part there is a unity both of action and interest. This unity, which is less visible in the Middle Ages, reappears in Modern History, and manifests itself chie?y in the revolutions of the Balance of Power.
