This rigorous, balanced study draws upon the latest scholarship on 18th-century European diplomacy to expose the tangled web of treaties, territorial claims, and military strategies that dominated the European geopolitical landscape during a pivotal era of global transformation. The author skillfully interweaves the personal ambitions of monarchs with the machinations of their ministers to illuminate both the kaleidoscopic shifts in alliances and the underlying continuity of strategic goals.
