Critic reviews

"The strength of Detwiler's accomplishment lies in his ability to explain concisely what was at the root of complex matters such as the lay investiture controversy-and to choose the right things to explain." ( Library Journal)
"He capsulizes main German trends and thoughts in an exciting manner so that the reader is easily motivated to learn more about German history." ( German Quarterly)

Reader awful. It's like he recorded all the individual words which were then edited together.

Reader Dreadful
