Reviews

A pioneering study of the social history of a military elite. The subject is much neglected....Enthralling. --R.J.W. Evans, New York Review of Books A superior work by a distinguished scholar....Not just the best book about the Habsburg army available, but a work that affords readers marvelously illuminating glimpses into the true nature of the whole monarchy. --Choice This innovative study of the habburg army officer corps reflects the author's exhaustive research of memoirs and personnel files....Deak's study will be welcomed by military historyians and by all students of the habsburg Monarchy and Central European history....one hopes that Beyond Nationalism will provide a model for similar social histories of the military elites of other countries. --The Journal of Military History A pioneering work written with Deak's customary precision, verve, and elegance, this book makes a most important contribution to Habsburg studies, military history, and the question of nationalism. --Piotr Wandycz, Yale University Written sympathetically and the vast amount of evidence employed is compressed into an easy narrative....More than just a good read, for it makes important revisionist points....An excellent book which every military, social, and political historian of Central Europe will find a joy to read. --Times Higher Education Supplement
