Germany, France, Russia and Islam
Heinrich Von Treitschke was a prolific German historian and political
writer during the nineteenth century. In Germany, France, Russia and
Islam, first published in 1915, he considers European diplomatic rela­
tions from the patriotic perspective of imperial Germany, in particular
examining Germany’s relationship to Turkey and France. This is a
fascinating classic work, which will be of great value to academics and
students interested in nineteenth-century European politics and his­
tory.
