Summary:

""Austria, Prussia and the Making of Modern Germany, 1806-1871" considers Germany's relations with interior and exterior states during the first half of the nineteenth century. And since Prussia and Austria were the two most important German states the fate of Germany was dependent upon their relationship. This new text considers the changing nature of that relationship from 1806, when Austria and Prussia had been excluded from any influence in the rest of Germany by the power of Napoleon, to 1866 when Prussia defeated Austria in war and then went on in 1870. This latest book in the Seminar Studies in History series bridges the gap between textbook and specialist survey. The text consists of a brief Introduction/Background to the subject, a substantial and authoritative section of "Analysis, " an assessment focusing on the main themes and issues, and concludes with a section of documents a detailed bibliography. Those interested in German history.
