Years of Renewal : European History, 1470-1600 (2nd ed)

A survey of one of the most dramatic periods of European history.

The key themes of the Renaissance, the Reformation, culture and exploration are analyzed through a blend of source material and narrative.

The volume also contains chapters that chart the contribution and policies of leading figures of the age, including Ferdinand and Isabella, Charles V, Francis I and Philip II, as well as the role played by reformers such as Luther, Calvin and Zwingli.

The exercise sections at the end of each chapter have been revised to reflect examination practice.
