"[This book] will prove useful for both beginning and advanced students." Choice
Eminently readable Succinct [and] frequently witty. The International History Review
"The best general textbook now available on modern Germany, Martin Kitchen′s study is exceptionally rich in its coverage of all aspects of German history from the late 18th to the very end of the 20th century. It is also very accessible. Without losing sight of the big questions of the country′s tumultuous and complex history, the author, with the help of frequent sub–headings, facilitates easy orientation for the reader looking for information on and analysis of specific issues." V.R. Berghahn, Columbia University
"Written with clarity and succinctness, this book will both challenge and inspire students of history attempting to understand the labyrinthine and dramatic course of modern German history." Dr Christian Leitz, Corporate Historian, UBS AG
Organized chronologically, the book addresses all the major watersheds in German history, including the unification, the rise and fall of the German Empire, the emergence of the Weimar Republic and its eventual submergence by the Third Reich, the collapse of the Third Reich with the Second World War, the birth of the Federal Republic, the collapse of Communism, and re–unification. Written from the perspective of post–reunification Germany, A History of Modern Germany allows readers to take a long view of German history and to trace continuities as well as changes. It examines cultural issues such as class, religion, and gender, as well as political and economic history, and includes coverage of regional history rather than merely focusing on the dominant role of Prussia.
