Reviews
"[Paquette] skillfully brings together a very wide and often disparate array of literature, covering the five major empires of the colonial era, and forms an in-depth comparative history of empires....[This] book is elegantly written and well organized."--J. Ross Dancy, H-Net "For anyone keen to learn about the rise and development of Europe's overseas empires, this is the place to begin. Paquette has mastered a vast body of information to produce a splendid survey."--J. H. Elliott, author of Empires of the Atlantic World "This book builds on an incredible grasp of comparative historiography and brings previously disparate literatures into conversation with one another. It is a sparkling piece of scholarship."--Matthew Brown, University of Bristol "Paquette masterfully explores the interconnected histories of five European seaborne empires. His book is an in-depth and comprehensive piece of transnational history, and a fundamental contribution to the comparative history of empires."--Pedro Cardim, Universidade Nova de Lisboa "Beautifully written and thoughtfully argued by a leading historian, this text rethinks the history of the seaborne empires in fruitful and innovative ways. Paquette skillfully brings non-European actors to the fore and demonstrates the limitations of European ambition even as he illuminates its growing power."--Philippa Levine, University of Texas at Austin "In a blend of lucid narrative and nuanced analysis, Paquette provides a superb synthesis of early modern imperialism. Sweeping across a vast geographical and cultural range, he demonstrates the vital contribution of Europe's seaborne empires to global capitalism, and its consequences for peoples and environments across the world. A brilliant new starting point, highly recommended."--Anthony McFarlane, Emeritus Professor of History, University of Warwick, "[Paquette] skillfully brings together a very wide and often disparate array of literature, covering the five major empires of the colonial era, and forms an in-depth comparative history of empires....[This] book is elegantly written and well organized. . . . A well-framed, easily read, and fresh introduction to the imperial history of western Europe. For this, Gabriel Paquette deserves a hearty congratulations."--J. Ross Dancy, H-Net "This book [is] an important addition to the study of maritime commerce and naval power during the age of empire."--Thomas Malcomson, Northern Mariner "Gabriel Paquette's history of European maritime empires from roughly 1620 to 1820 fills a gap. Designed as an introductory overview for students and scholars new to the subject, his volume is a tour de force and immensely readable. . . . Paquette offers an excellent entry point for understanding maritime empires and their legacy."--Margarette Lincoln, Journal of British Studies "For anyone keen to learn about the rise and development of Europe's overseas empires, this is the place to begin. Paquette has mastered a vast body of information to produce a splendid survey."--J. H.

[which] serves as a good reminder of how global empires fit together."--Alan L.
