Overview
On the eve of the 1874 transit of Venus, an educated person, looking back to the last such event in 1769, might well conclude that the intervening 105 years had seen greater changes to the world than in any previous interval of like duration. Some of the period’s events were literally revolutionary: the American Revolution, the French Revolution followed by the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, the Latin American Revolutions, and the Revolutions of 1830 and 1848. New nations had arisen in the Americas, including the United States, while in Europe both Italy and Germany had become unified.
