Historyzine 001: Prelude to the War of the Spanish Succession

The first episode of Historyzine features a review of the podcast, History According to Bob and a look at the phrase, ‘burning the candle at both ends.’ My featured subject at the moment is the ‘War of the Spanish Succession.’ In this episode we look at the 3 wars preceding this one and get some idea of the balance of power in Europe at the end of the 17th century.
