Description
First published in 1922, as part of the Cambridge Historical Series, this book presents the English translation of a German original written by Swiss historian Wilhelm Oechsli (1851-1919). The text gives a broad overview of the history of Switzerland, beginning with the separation of the Swiss from the Holy Roman Empire and moving through to the establishment of Switzerland as a federal state. A comprehensive bibliography is also included. This is a detailed and highly readable book that will be of value to anyone with an interest in historiography and perspectives on the history of Switzerland.
