Summary
"William Maltby's new study not only looks at Charles V as a person, but also examines important critical issues: the Emperor's policies and their consequences; the institutional, economic, and intellectual development of his various realms; and his military and diplomatic struggles. Concise and readable, it provides students and the general reader with an indispensable introduction to a reign which defies historical comparison, and an era that changed the world."--Jacket.
