Reviews
'... as a work of synthesis, requiring the interpretation of a vast corpus of research, Chickering's book has indeed achieved something of considerable originality ... he peppers his text with elegant aperçus of his own - the fruit of a lifetime of immersion in this material.' Daniel Johnson, The Critic, 'Roger Chickering presents a general survey on the history of the German Empire which is based on more than forty years of research. His book brilliantly combines this research with the knowledge of the development of the scholarship and the curiosity and openness for new approaches. The result is a Totalgeschichte of the German Empires as a realm of multiple actions and experiences.' Karen Hagemann, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Synopsis
This broad survey of imperial Germany provides rich insights into this fractious period, when furious economic growth and social change resulted in pervasive civic conflict. The German Empire, 1871-1918 explores the challenges of rapid industrialization and urban growth, both for local communities and Germany's global relations., Furious economic growth and social change resulted in pervasive civic conflict in Imperial Germany. Roger Chickering presents a wide-ranging history of this fractious period, from German national unification to the close of the First World War. Throughout this time, national unity remained an acute issue. It appeared to be resolved momentarily in the summer of 1914, only to dissolve in the war that followed. This volume examines the impact of rapid industrialization and urban growth on Catholics and Protestants, farmers and city dwellers, industrial workers and the middle classes. Focusing on its religious, regional, and ethnic reverberations, Chickering also examines the social, cultural, and political dimensions of domestic conflict. Providing multiple lenses with which to view the German Empire, Chickering's survey examines local and domestic experiences as well as global ramifications. The German Empire, 1871-1918 provides the most comprehensive survey of this restless era available in the English language.
