The third volume in this highly acclaimed series examines world history from 1450 to the beginning of the twentieth century. It begins with an examination of the five newly forming "gunpowder empires" and develops the themes of industrialization and the formation of nation-states. The second half of the book covers Europe's growing global power and concludes on the eve of the twentieth century as Europe, the United States, and Japan develop and become fully modern nations.
