This four-volume set presents Eric Hobsbawm’s definitive account of global transformation from the late eighteenth century to the end of the twentieth. Through incisive historical analysis, Hobsbawm chronicles the rise of industrial capitalism, the spread of empire, and the ideological battles that shaped the modern world. He argues that revolution, economic expansion, and geopolitical conflict were not isolated events but interconnected forces that redefined societies across continents. Each volume instructs readers in the political, cultural, and economic shifts that underpinned modernity, from the French Revolution to the Cold War. The Folio Society edition enhances the narrative with elegant design and scholarly gravitas.
