Composed in his famously witty style, yet succinct to the point of sharpness, this is one of A.J.P. Taylor's best-known books, and is a notoriously idiosyncratice work written during the last days of the Second World War.

Review
"He is not only a brilliant but a profound historian."-- New Statesman
'Mr Taylor's book will appeal equally to the student of history, to the general reader in search of an interesting story, and to those who want to gain the historical background.' - The Observer 'He is not only a brilliant but a profound historian.' - New Statesman
Mr Taylor, by cutting down to a minimum the ballast of dates and names that so often encumbers historical writing, and concentrating on the fundamental trends and events, has achieved both brevity and lucidity. - The Observer

Mr Taylor, by cutting down to a minimum the ballast of dates and names that so often encumbers historical writing, and concentrating on the fundamental trends and events, has achieved both brevity and lucidity.
The Observer
Too much brilliancy is hurtful in intercourse with ideas, as too much wit is in intercourse with men; a dazzling formulation is apt to interfere with the precise presentation of a subject or thesis. Still, in spite of such shortcomings, the book should prove of high value in the study of the German problem.
