Vivid, succinct, and highly accessible, Heinrich Winkler's
magisterial history of modern Germany, offers the history of a
nation and its people through two turbulent centuries. It is the
story of a country that, while always culturally identified with
the West, long resisted the political trajectories of its
neighbours. This second and final volume begins at the point of the
collapse of the first German democracy, and ends with the joining
of East and West Germany in the reunification of 1990. Winkler
offers a brilliant synthesis of complex events and illuminates them
with fresh insights. He analyses the decisions that shaped the
country's triumphs and catastrophes, interweaving high politics
with telling vignettes about the German people and their own
self-perception. The two volumes of Germany: The Long Road West,
exploring the history of the German lands from the final days of
the Holy Roman Empire to the very first of a reunified state in the
late twentieth century, will be welcomed by scholars, students, and
anyone wishing to understand a most complex and contradictory past.
