A history of the rise and fall of united Germany, which lasted only 75 years from its establishment by Bismark in 1870. Suitable for A Level and upwards. In the OXFORD HISTORY OF MODERN EUROPE series.Gordon A.Craig was a historian of German and diplomatic history who was Scottish-American. Before serving in the US Marine Corps during World War II, he studied history at Princeton and was a Rhodes Scholar at Balliol College, Oxford. He coedited the 1941 book Creators of Modern Strategy: Military Thinking from Machiavelli to Hitler, which served as a strategic thinking guide for military leaders during World War Two.

In 2005, Gordon A.Craig passed away.
