Synopsis

CASSELL'S DICTIONARY OF MODERN GERMAN HISTORY covers over 250 years of Germany's tumultuous modern history - a period that witnessed the emergence of a united Germany as a major European and world power, the disastrous and instigating role played by German militarism in two world wars, the division of Germany during the Cold War era, and the reuniting of the two Germanys following the dismantling of the Berlin Wall in 1989. The dictionary's 1000+ entries deal not only with key political, diplomatic and military events and developments but also with economic, social and cultural matters.
