Description
On Germany tells the story of a country reborn from defeat in 1945 to its return as an economic colossus and European leader. Giles MacDonogh restores these momentous events to their German context, revealing the food, drink, and deep-rooted provincialism that shaped this extraordinary nation.
From the Berlin Wall's fall to reunification of East and West Germany, MacDonogh weaves a narrative full of vivid vignettes of German life. This is a nuanced exploration of a country he has known for decades, offering a unique perspective on its culture and people.
