The Fall of the Berlin Wall by Pat Levy
This title describes events on the day the Berlin Wall fell, and the effect it had on Germany and the rest of Europe. It also looks at the history of the Wall, explaining why it was built, as well as looking at the implications of what happened in the wider context of 20th century history. Real life accounts are included in moment-in-time boxes, acting as a freeze frame of people's thoughts, emotions and experiences as those from West Germany were at last free to travel to the East and vice versa. It is complete with photographs, a glossary, timelines and an index.
'Generous use of photographs, extensive glossaries, timelines and sources of further information including websites, all contribute to make these valuable resources for hte school library' -- Books fro Keeps, March 2003 '...this interesting and informative collection...' "'The Fall of the Berlin Wall', for instance, contains some great insights into modern European history and is well illustrated." -- Evening Echo 20020928
