A History of Modern Germany by Dietrich Orlow

For undergraduate junior/senior level courses in German history.   Covering the entire period of modern German history–from nineteenth century imperial Germany right through 2007–this well-established text engages students with its narrative, problem-focused approach, presenting a balanced, general survey of the country's political division in 1945 and reunification in the present. Detailing foreign policy as well as political, economic, and social developments, it presents a central theme of the problem of asymmetrical modernization in the country's history as it fully explores the complicated path of Germany's troubled past and stable present.

Praise for A History of Modern Germany:

The book's greatest strengths are its clarity and its good mixture of politics, culture, and economics

--Ronald Granieri, University of Pennsylvania

I think the writing style of A History of Modern Germany is one of the greatest strengths of this text. It is accessible and, above all, interesting-while remaining intelligent and thorough.

--Derek Hastings, Oakland University
