'...the text is logical and generally easy to follow...well-suited for upper-level undergraduate history students...' - The History Teacher Germany from Reich to Republic is well-suited for upper-level undergraduate history students, and, because the authors make specific reference throughout to many key interpretations, even graduate students could use this volume to deepen their understanding of the Imperial period. In addition, because of its system of thematic organization, both high school and college instructors could rely on the book for lecture material.' - Thomas Saylor, The History Teacher 'An excellent text.' - Adrian Hyde Price, University of Birmingham
