Within days of the publication of the first edition of this two-volume work the Berlin Wall was being dismantled, and within one year almost to the day Germany once more became one country and the Federal Republic of West Germany ceased to exist. The fully revised second edition describes the dramatic events of late 1989 and 1990 in which the German Democratic Republic collapsed and Germany was united by a combination of popular protest and urgent negotiation. It also contains full and detailed revisions throughout both volumes, and may now be said to be, in every sense of the word, definitive. The work is richly illustrated with photographs, maps and tables, fully referenced and indexed. Each volume has been arranged so that it may be read and used independently of the other.
