This practical handbook gives students all the essential facts and figures they will need for coursework on the last two centuries of modern European history. It contains detailed topical chronologies; notes on governments; wars, treaties and diplomacy; economic and social statistics; biographies; glossary and an extended bibliography. This fully updated edition now covers recent momentous events, from 1986 through to 1991, including German reunification, the revolutions of Eastern Europe and the crises of Russia. It is designed as a desk companion for constant use by the student, not as a reference work for occasional assistance on the library shelf.
