Peter H. Wilson is Chichele Professor of the History of War at the
University of Oxford, having worked previously at the universities
of Newcastle, Sunderland, and Hull, where he was Professor of
History. He has also been a visiting fellow at the University of
Münster. His books include Europe's Tragedy. A History of the
Thirty Years War (2009), which received the Distinguished Book
Award from the Society for Military History in 2011, and most
recently The Holy Roman Empire: A Thousand Years of Europe's
History (2016).
A very readable book. Highly recommended for anyone wishing to
understand more about the Thirty Years' War. An excellent addition
to OUP's Great Battles series.

With this beautiful, well-illustrated book, Wilson has propelled
Lutzen from moderate obscurity to its rightful place in history ...
OUP have worked in great harmony with a renowned historian to
produce a thought-provoking, highly readable piece of
scholarship.
