This is a book that offers much... It is a highly sophisticated piece of writing, and another close read of this fascinating study will no doubt produce many more important insights. * American Historical Review Likely to invigorate the revisionist interpretation of British foreign policy before 1914... The focus suggested by the title... is where future research should find a fruitful starting point. * The Journal of Modern History If Ranke actually held fast to his famous concept of the primacy of foreign policy, he might not have liked Rose's conclusions, but surely he would have approved the scholarship. * The International History Review The quality of this research is outstanding. * William Mulligan, University of Dublin Meticulously researched and masterfully argued... Rose skillfully demonstrates that, driven by domestic concerns and by the strategic challenge posed primarily by France and Russia, rather than Germany, Britain embarked on a radical overhaul of its foreign affairs. * Thomas Weber, University of Aberdeen Author InformationAndreas Rose teaches Modern History at the University of Bonn.
