Pieter M. Judson is Professor of 19th and 20th Century History at the European University Institute in Florence, Italy.
A masterpiece of historical rethinking by one of the great Habsburg historians of our age. Judson reminds us of how little we have fully grasped the subtleties and complexities of Habsburg history.--Larry Wolff, author of The Idea of Galicia: History and Fantasy in Habsburg Political Culture
Judson forever banishes images of the Habsburg Empire as a decrepit and declining anachronism. This is the history we have been waiting for since the empire disappeared from Europe's map.--Tara Zahra, author of The Great Departure: Mass Migration from Eastern Europe and the Making of the Free World
Strongly revisionist and effortlessly wide-ranging, Judson's book offers a strikingly original interpretation of Austria-Hungary as an empire rather than a collection of hostile national groups. This powerful insight should change how we think about European history.--Robert Nemes, author of Another Hungary: The Nineteenth-Century Provinces in Eight Lives
