This work provides a detailed overview of major conflicts and treaties that occurred between the end of the Napoleonic Wars and the outbreak of World War I. The book primarily focuses on international relations and the frequent wars during this period, exploring their causes, events, and political outcomes, thus serving as a reference for students and scholars interested in understanding the complexities of 19th and early 20th-century diplomacy and warfare. The opening of the book sets the stage for its exploration of the intricate world of international affairs, emphasizing the importance of understanding past conflicts to inform current perspectives on foreign policy. Ponsonby discusses how many people are increasingly interested in foreign affairs but often lack the historical background necessary to grasp the ongoing complexities. He introduces the need for a concise reference that outlines conflicts and treaties from 1815 to 1914, highlighting how the tumultuous events are often rooted in political ambition, shifting national interests, and, occasionally, seemingly trivial incidents. This introduction lays a strong foundation for the detailed records of wars and treaties that follow, beckoning readers to reflect on historical patterns that have shaped modern diplomacy.
