Germany and the Origins of the Second World War Reviews

'Jonathan Wright has produced the incisive Germany and the Origins of the Second World War - Ian Kershaw, The Guardian 'This book is packed with conceptual ideas, throwing up possible hypotheses, leaving them hanging then seeing where they fit with other ones: 21 pages of footnotes and a 200 book bibliography show the depth of referencing that the author has gone through to establish his views.' - Andrew Hunt, History Teaching Review 'Jonathan Wright's book is well-researched, well-structured, and well-written...This reader should be in the hands of every student who wants to understand Germany's complicated history between 1930 and 1945.' - Jurgen Forster, German Historical Institute Bulletin 'Wright has reworked this grim passage of European history with verve and assurace to the benefit, surely, of a large readership.' - Conan Fischer, English Historical Review
