Britain and the German question

Meer over het boek

This book analyzes the British attitude to one of the dominant issues of 19th-century Europe. Both in Germany and beyond, politicians grappled with the German Question—the twin problem of uniting the many German states and of intergrating the resultant Reich into the European states system. This original study explores how the makers of British foreign policy responded to these issues between the July Revolution of 1830 and Bismarkch's "Wars of German Unification," and explains what kind of united Germany they wanted to see.
