Excerpt from Treitschke's History of Germany in the Nineteenth Century, Vol. 4 With the present volume of the German History, Which reproduces the greater part of the third volume of the original, Treitschke leaves behind the series of European congresses and conferences Which supplemented the Congress of Vienna, and introduces his readers to the domestic politics of the States united in the Germanic F ederation and the intimate life of their courts and peoples. The narrative, rich in passages characterised by profound insight, picturesque description, and warm feeling, strikingly illustrates the great breadth of his survey, and his consummate art as a writer. Occasionally it also brings into prominence that psychic blindness and unconquerable prejudice, bordering at times on malignity, which vitiate his judgments upon some other countries, and especially Great Britain, and which for non - German readers mar so much of his work, Viewed as pure history.
