Makes for a relatively light, fun read.Hajo Holborn--A history of Modern Germany (reformation up to 1945). Excellent book. Huge time frame to cover, but it's really nice to get the whole thing in a continuous telling.
Wish I could find something like this for the other major European countries.
The horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight.
