I would very much appreciate some book recommendations regarding the revolutions of 1848

Can I recommend a book that isn't out yet? Christopher Clark is about to publish a book called Revolutionary Spring. For a preview, check out his lecture

Of course you can! Thank you kindly, I shall keep it in mind.

The only recent popular history I know of (excepting the one that isn’t out yet!) is Mike Rapport’s Year of Revolutions.

For some much older books providing narratives of particular countries, you have Stanley Pech’s ‘Czech Revolution of 1848’, John Rath’s ‘Viennese Revolution of 1848’, and Istvan Deak’s ‘The Lawful Revolution’ about Hungary, all of which I believe can be found on archive.org.

Outside of books there’s a season of Mike Duncan’s podcast ‘Revolutions’ which is a good overview, and he’s got a bibliography on his podcast’s website.
