Description

The Period of Congresses is a historical book written by Adolphus William Ward and published in 1919. The book covers the period of European history from 1815 to 1856, which was marked by a series of international congresses held in various European cities. These congresses were attended by representatives of European powers and aimed to establish a new balance of power in Europe after the Napoleonic Wars.The book provides a detailed account of the major congresses that took place during this period, including the Congress of Vienna, the Congress of Aix-la-Chapelle, the Congress of Troppau, the Congress of Laibach, the Congress of Verona, and the Congress of Paris. It also covers the key issues discussed at these congresses, such as the territorial boundaries of European states, the suppression of revolutionary movements, and the abolition of the slave trade.Throughout the book, Ward provides a critical analysis of the decisions made at these congresses and their impact on European history. He also examines the role of individual statesmen, such as Metternich, Castlereagh, and Canning, in shaping the outcomes of these congresses.Overall, The Period of Congresses is a comprehensive and insightful account of a crucial period in European history, offering readers a deeper understanding of the political, social, and economic factors that shaped the continent during the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
