A Traveller's History of Germany

Author: Robert Cole
Bugs: 5
Review by: KM

I picked this book in order to read just the section on Prussian history because some family research has shown one or more came from that area and I was interested in picking up some basic knowledge of the area and that period of history. I found myself not able to stop reading and continued on. Cole is Professor of Modern British and European History at Utah State University as well as a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society and has lectured at British universities. I just found it very readable--it filled in a lot of blanks that weren't covered in my history courses through school.
