The first of two volumes on the history of the Baltic world from the late Middle Ages to the present, this book covers the period from 1492 to 1772. The rise and fall of Sweden as the main power in this region dominates this work, as does the basic struggle against famine, disease and poverty.
This is the first in a sequence of books which explores the history of The Baltic World and Northern Europe. In this period, Sweden was a major European power, occupying a central position in international politics. Her rise and decline, and the passing of regional hegemony to the new powers of Russia and Prussia, are central features in the book. Dr Kirby describes the evolving social and political systems of the principal Baltic states of the time, he gives the key events and processes in European history a new interest and freshness by showing them from the unfamiliar perspective of the northern world.
