.The Italian Risorgimento (Seminar Studies In History) by: Martin Clark August 03, 1998 This book clearly explains the resorgimento and movement for Italian unification. There are a small number of primary sources at the end of the book which allow you to read first hand accounts of the fight for unity. There is some in depth analysis of the period up to the European Revolutions of 1848/49, however, it is post 1849 that the book contains the most information. Throughout the book there are reminders about the cause and consequences of each of the events that led to unification. The period before 1848 is covered, although this is concise and if you are studying this period in depth further material would be required. This also applies to the chapter about the Revolutions of 1848/49, whilst the book places events on a clear timeline ...

.Poverty and Public Health : 1815-1948 (Heinemann Advanced History S.): 1815-1914 (Heinemann Advanced History) by: Rosemary Rees April 03, 2001 While few disagree that Public Health is one of the less riveting topics on the new A level syllabus, this book suceeds in capturing your attention. The information is clear, concise and easy to understand. The book covers all the major public health reforms of the nineteenth century and many of the minor acts as well. I would advise anyone studying public health to purchase this book. It is well worth the money. >>See More Reviews & Details on Poverty and Public Health : 1815-1948 (Heinemann Advanced History S.): 1815-1914 (Heinemann Advanced History) |

.The Unification of Italy (Lancaster Pamphlets) by: John Gooch May 15, 1986 This is an excellent book to be read when you are first apporaching the period, or are reading purely for pleasure. However, if you are studying the period (as I have done for AS Level History) the book is not really detailed enough to be of much use. The book, as with others in the series, has a timeline which helps put events in perspective and particularly focuses on the events following partial unification in 1860/61. The author, John Gooch, has chosen to adopt a style that informs us of the established opinion rather than challenging the accepted view. The book also includes some 'primary sources' and these are a good inclusion, however, the ones in the Seminar studies book of the same name I found was an improvement. The book is short and ...

.Stalinist Russia (Heinemann Advanced History) by: Steve Phillips July 11, 2000 I have found this book helpful for both my AS and A2 options on Stalinist Russia. Has questions and answers from past A-Level papers, which I found tremendously useful. In addition, the book concentrates on the A-Level syllabus rather than adding unnecessary waffle - great to use throughout the course! >>See More Reviews & Details on Stalinist Russia (Heinemann Advanced History) |
