The Age of Revolution: Europe: 1789–1848 is a book by Eric Hobsbawm, first published in 1962. It is the first in a trilogy of books about "the long 19th century" (coined by Hobsbawm), followed by The Age of Capital: 1848–1875, and The Age of Empire: 1875–1914. A fourth book, The Age of Extremes: The Short Twentieth Century, 1914–1991, acts as a sequel to the trilogy.

A compelling Marxian history

A compelling of the first third-ish of the so-called long nineteenth century by British Marxist Eric Hobsbawm. It is generally compelling and engaging. Beyond the normal arguments about how and Cold War-era Marxist has aged from today's standpoints, Hobsbawm came across to me as pretty hand-waving when it comes to much of the non-European world, with some obvious exceptions (the US) and limited and conditional other exceptions (Japan). I don't know if greater attention to places and times he glosses over would change his argument, but it would undoubtedly have enriched it.
