The Origins of the Thirty Years War and the Revolt in Bohemia, 1618

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the origins of the Thirty Years War, the book highlights the significance of the Bohemian revolt and the notable defenestration of Prague, rather than the commonly emphasized religious tensions in Germany or the geopolitical conflicts involving Spain, France, and the Dutch. As the 400th anniversary of the war's outbreak nears, Geoff Mortimer offers a fresh perspective on these pivotal events that shaped the conflict's inception.
