Philomena Sweeney said Perfect Condition. I am very happy with the service I received and quality of the book. It is prefectnow to start reading it.. Probably the Best Introduction to the Period While somewhat dated, this is probably the best introduction to the period. I use the word "probably," because I am not an expert on Early Modern England, and therefore I do not know the entire literature available. What I can say, though, is that Russell's work is magnificantly written. The presentation of ideas is crystal clear and the writing is emotive and witty. In short, its a page turner (for a history nut).
