The chapters reveal that their authors concerns to analyse both the nature and significance of connections between geopolitical and economic forces lend  coherence to a collaborative endeavour utilising comparative methods to address a mega question. What might be plausibly concluded about the economic costs and the benefits of this protracted conjuncture of Revolutionary and Napoleonic Warfare?    Contributors are: Patrick Karl O’Brien, Loïc Charles, Guillaume Daudin, Silvia Marzagalli, Marjolein ’t Hart, Johan Joor, Mark Dincecco, Giovanni Federico, Leandro Prados de la Escosura, Carlos Santiago-Caballero, Cristina Moreira, Jaime Reis, Rita Martins de Sousa, and Peter M.Solar.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eList of Maps, Figures and Tables   Notes on Contributors   Preface   1 Exploring Connections between the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, State Formation and the Growth of European Economies    Patrick Karl O’Brien    2 Britain’s Wars with France 1793–1815 and Their Contribution to the Consolidation of Its Industrial Revolution 22    Patrick Karl O’Brien    3 In the Epicentre of the Storm?
