Ogg, David. Europe in the Seventeenth Century. Fifth Edition. London, Adam and Charles Black, 1949. 14.5 x 22cm. 576 pages, with four fold-out maps. Original clothbound hardcover with gilt lettering in dustjacket. Some wear to dustjacket, including paper loss to rear flap. Text clean, binding firm, endpapers age darkened. Inscribed with previous owner’s name. From the series The History of Europe. The 17th century is presented here not as a disconnected series of petty wars and intrigues, but as a living and interesting past in which many old prejudices were abandoned and many modern problems foreshadowed. The author frequently discards the conventional method, and indicates the influence of thought and speculation upon political problems. [From jacket notes]
