Martin Kitchen is Professor of History at Simon Fraser University, Canada. Among his many books are Nazi Germany at War (1994), The Cambridge Illustrated History of Germany (1996) and The German Offensives of 1918 (2001).
"Kitchen sets out to tell a story, and he tells it well. His sentences are elegant and his narrative is enriched with striking facts and characterisation about the statesmen he portrays. This is a complex and subtly written book." Times Higher Education Supplement "[This book] will prove useful for both beginning and advanced students." Choice "Eminently readable ... Succinct [and] frequently witty." The International History Review "The best general textbook now available on modern Germany, Martin Kitchen's study is exceptionally rich in its coverage of all aspects of German history from the late 18th to the very end of the 20th century. It is also very accessible. Without losing sight of the big questions of the country's tumultuous and complex history, the author, with the help of frequent sub-headings, facilitates easy orientation for the reader looking for information on and analysis of specific issues." V.R. Berghahn, Columbia University "Written with clarity and succinctness, this book will both challenge and inspire students of history attempting to understand the labyrinthine and dramatic course of modern German history." Dr Christian Leitz, Corporate Historian, UBS AG
