Asked this in the c/history comm a few days back, figured I'd ask here also

Looking for some books or other resources that serve as good overviews of the long nineteenth century, especially as it pertains to Western Europe. I of course know of the Hobsbawm series which people have recommended. But does anyone know of any other good histories of this period that are worth checking out? Looking to give myself some historical context for Marx.
