This book provides a clear and informative guide to the twists and turns of German history from the early middle ages to the present day. The multi-faceted, problematic history of the German lands has provided a wide range of debates and differences of interpretation. Mary Fulbrook provides a crisp synthesis of a vast array of historical material, and explores the interrelationships between social, political and cultural factors in the light of scholarly controversies. First published in 1990, A Concise History of Germany appeared in an updated edition in 1992, and in a second edition in 2004. It is the only single-volume history of Germany in English which offers a broad, general coverage. It has become standard reading for all students of German, European studies and history, and is a useful guide to general readers, members of the business community and travellers to Germany.

Fullbrook is known as a consummate scholar. As this is my first serious look at German history, I can only say that her skill as a writer is evident and the novice will be encouraged to investigate epochs of history beyond her brief treatment of such an influential nation. Frequently, a single, brief paragraph leaves the reader with a desire to delve further into her summaries.

A very useful and easy to read book for my GCSE History. After wading through the syllabus about the Cold War and the text book, I knew something about the subject. This slim book recapped all of that and seemed to bring it together. It was like reading a novel - what happened next? I have now ordered another 7 books in the same series which cover other topics in the course.

I am 70 next year, so this book is good to read, whatever age you are. I am sure the other 7 will be as well.

A useful reference which occasionally gave unexpected detail on subjects which must have appealed to the writer. I passed it on to a holiday guide.

An excellent guide to German history

Reviewed in Canada on 29 November 2017

This is a well-written concise guide to the History of Germany. I certainly learned a lot, particularly about the atrocities committed by the Nazi regime during the Third Reich. I would have liked more information on the massacre of Senegalese soldiers though. Great book!
