Recenzii
'Colin Storer's sympathetic new history of the Weimar Republic provides an up-to-date, balanced and reliable overview of the troubled years 1919-1933. He underlines the first German Republic's achievements without glossing over its defects, presenting a compelling picture of a society in turmoil. Storer's book is a perfect invitation to explore these highly ambivalent times.' - Daniel Siemens, University College London, author of The Making of a Nazi Hero: The Murder and Myth of Horst Wessel 'In his Short History of Weimar Republic, Colin Storer accomplishes the almost impossible task of presenting the broader chronology of Weimar Germany with enough meaningful detail to make it a useful survey with intellectual depth, but without being lost in minutiae. This is a bravura performance.' -- Richard Bodek, Professor of History, College of Charleston 'A wonderfully readable and analytically superb introduction to the history of the Weimar Republic, which was, as Colin Storer demonstrates tremendously well, very different indeed from what historians have imagined it to be for the last half century.' - Thomas Weber, Reader in History, University of Aberdeen and Fritz Thyssen Fellow, Weatherhead Center for International Affairs, Harvard University
