2,000 years of history in one riveting afternoon

A country both admired and feared, Germany has been the epicenter of world events time and again: the Reformation, both World Wars, the fall of the Berlin Wall. It did not emerge as a modern nation until 1871 - yet today, Germany is the world's fourth-largest economy and a standard-bearer of liberal democracy.

"There's no point studying the past unless it sheds some light on the present", writes James Hawes in this brilliantly concise history that has already captivated hundreds of thousands of readers and listeners. "It is time, now more than ever, for us all to understand the real history of Germany."

A great performance and very interesting history about Germany and how it became such a significant country in Europe.

A very interesting History that seems to repeat itself

This is the long view of German history, tracing continuities from Roman times to 2019. Note: as of 1/25, Audible’s chapter listing is comically wrong. The 2019 postscript is closer to 3 minutes than the indicated 3 hours.

Lively and insightful

I am happy with the content of the book, but unfortunately the narrator can’t pronounce German names and words, which makes listening painful to me.
