    Post Re: Books to read before Empires is released

    The book I'm reading right now might in fact be relevant here. It's called Religion, Commerce and Liberty: 1683-1793 by J. W. Jeudwine. Just started it myself. Of course its out of print and might be hard to find but I'm using it as a primer for ETW too since my knowledge of the 18th century post-Spanish Succession War is sketchy at best. I could also recommend A History of Europe 1715-1814: by W. F. Reddaway. That's also out of print but it is quite relevant to ETW's time frame.

    I might also mention one other book, but it could be even more difficult to come by. This one is called Rise and Fall of the Mughal Empire by R. P. Tripathi. I haven't had a chance to read it yet and my copy was printed in India (first such book I've come across). It covers a period proximate to 1500-1800. Since ETW deals with India and the Mughals in one sense or another this might be worth looking into.
