Three rulers from the House of Orange-Nassau reigned over the Netherlands from 1813 to 1890: King William I from 1813 to 1840, King William II from 1840 to 1849, and King William III from 1849 to 1890. Theirs is an epic tale of joy and tragedy, progress and catastrophe, disappointment and glory - all set against the backdrop of a Europe plagued by war and revolution. The House of Orange in Revolution and War relates one and a half centuries of House of Orange history in a gripping narrative, leading the reader from the last stadholders of the Dutch Republic to the modern monarchy of the early twentieth century, from the French Revolution and the Napoleonic wars to the First World War and the European Revolutions that came after it.
"The House of Orange in Revolution and War is a lively study that integrates the Dutch monarchy into the transnational history of Europe' s dynasties. A compelling account of the codevelopment of Crown, constitution, and political culture in the Netherlands, this book will be welcomed by anyone with an interest in Europe' s monarchical nineteenth century. A joy to read. "--Frank Lorenz Muller, professor in modern history, University of St Andrews
