One of A.J.P. Taylor’s best-known books, The Course of German History is a notoriously idiosyncratic work. Composed in his famously witty style, yet succinct to the point of sharpness, this is one of the great historian’s finest, if more controversial, accomplishments. As Taylor himself noted, ‘the history of the Germans is a history of extremes. It contains everything except moderation.’ He could, of course, simply be referring to his own book.


Review

‘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
