A Cultural History of Peace presents an authoritative survey from ancient times to the present. The set of six volumes covers over 2500 years of history, charting the evolving nature and role of peace throughout history.

This volume, A Cultural History of Peace in the Age of Empire, explores peace in the period from 1800 to 1920. As with all the volumes in the illustrated Cultural History of Peace set, this volume presents essays on the meaning of peace, peace movements, maintaining peace, peace in relation to gender, religion and war and representations of peace.

A Cultural History of Peace in the Age of Empire is the most authoritative and comprehensive survey available on peace in the long 19th century.
