Explore how the Celtic and Teutonic worlds shaped Europe and the world, in a closely argued study that traces their long, intertwined history in The Celt and the World.
This edition surveys how ideas of empire, religion, and national character moved the balance of power across continents. It traces the rise and fall of German influence, the aging threads of the Holy Roman Empire, and how England, France, and Russia navigated shifting alliances. The discussion also looks at cultural legacies, from Gothic architecture to the spread of Christian civilization, and explains why some episodes intensified rivalries while others aimed to preserve a broader peace.

- The transformation of medieval and modern power, and what sparked wars and alliances
- The cultural impact, including architecture and the reshaping of Europe
- Key episodes in Africa, the Far East, the Balkans, and the wider world that shaped the course of history
