This innovative book looks beyond the traditional history of European expansion-which highlights European conquests, empire building, and hegemony-in order to explore the more human and realistic dimensions of European experiences abroad. David Ringrose argues that Early Modern Europe was relatively poor and that its industrial and military technology, while distinctive in some ways, was not obviously superior to that of Africa or Asia.
