Top Marks for Ms Kitson5
Alison Kitson shows that it is possible to combine intelligent and incisive analysis with youthful glamour, in her first foray into academic publishing. Despite the relative dryness of the subject matter, the book itself is a fine reference guide for students and teachers alike.

The build-up to both WWI and WWII, and the economic chaos of Weimar Germany have been covered extensively, but Kitten's approach of looking long-term at the development of Germany as an economy and as a nation. It offers a new perspective in explaining the events surrounding a key world power in the 19th and 20th Centuries. Highly recommended.
