Overview

Wim Klooster offers a comparative study of revolutions across the British, French and Spanish Atlantic worlds in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He traces how colonial uprisings, metropolitan crises and local movements reshaped political and social orders.

The book analyzes empire, slavery and emancipation, and highlights the roles of indigenous and African-descended peoples while assessing the mechanisms of popular mobilization and legal change.

Useful for students and readers of Atlantic or revolutionary history, the work combines primary sources with scholarly synthesis to reveal connections among parallel uprisings.
