Bridging the Atlantic cover

This volume discusses comparative developments in modern European and American history.

Bridging the Atlantic discusses comparative developments in modern European and American history. Including case studies on British, German and US history since the eighteenth century, it seeks to establish an integrated vision of Atlantic history. The contributions by European and American historians challenge the concept of American exceptionalism and present a vivid example of the ongoing debate between American and European historians on the structure and nature of European-American relations.

'… will prove of great value in the US where the battle for a transatlantic perspective has constantly to be fought.' Contemporary Review
