A Yankee Book Peddler UK Core Title for 2012 'This book abounds with striking new insights... this is an outstanding study of an important yet overlooked European ruler and his world.' Geoffrey Parker, American Historical Review 'Luc Duerloo’s work on Archduke Albert has certainly been worth the wait... This really is a work that should be incorporated in all future textbooks on the Dutch Revolt, the Thirty Years’ War, and their related conflicts.' Renaissance Quarterly '... as a whole Duerloo has delivered an interesting overview of European politics in the early-seventeenth century in which he makes connections that most historians have overlooked, showing the influence of family matters on Habsburg international policy.' Catholic Historical Review 'This impressive study is concerned with three interrelated themes. It offers an up-to-date biography of Archduke Albert of Austria (1559-1621), analyses international relations in the early seventeenth century and assesses the forces behind Habsburg politics in this period. In all these areas it sheds authoritative new light... Duerloo’s book will be a point of reference for decades to come.' Journal of Ecclesiastical History 'Luc Duerloo nimmt eine schlüssige Neubewertung der dynastischen Politik der Erzherzöge Albrecht und Isabella im europäischen Kontext vor. Seine präzise Analyse bildet die Grundlage für jede weitere Beschäftigung mit diesem Themenkomplex und macht 'Dynasty and Piety' zu einem Standardwerk zur Geschichte des Hauses Habsburg im ersten Viertel des 17. Jahrhunderts. ['Luc Duerloo makes a final revaluation of the dynastic politics of the Archdukes Albert and Isabella in a European context. His precise analysis will form the basis of any further research into the theme and makes ’Dynasty and Piety’ a standard work on the history of the Habsburg dynasty in the first quarter of the 17th century.] Francia-Recensio
