The Salzburg Transaction: Expulsion and Redemption in Eighteenth-Century Germany

By Mack Walker

In 1731-32 the archbishopric of Salzburg expelled about 20,000 Protestant farmers from the alpine districts above the city. The episode provoked a sharp confessional confrontation that threatened to destroy the political equilibrium of the Holy Roman Empire. In this elegant book Mack Walker provides the fullest available account of the expulsion.
