mods: Unchained eagle Germany after the wall Heneghan, Tom 1951- creator text bibliography History. enk London New York Reuters Pearson Education 2000 monographic eng print xvi, 245 pages, 16 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations (some color) ; 24 cm "Unchained Eagle is the story of Germany, from events leading up to the unification of east and west to the government's move to Berlin and Kohl's disgrace over his illegal slush funds. It looks at the challenges that have faced the nation - defining its military role, integrating eastern Germany, fighting neo-Nazis and establishing a German stamp on the European Union - and assesses how it has met them. It reflects on the concerns and controversies over economic reform, European monetary union, remembering the Holocaust and shaping the new Germany. More importantly, it is the story of a country and its people, the events that have moulded a new European power and the faces that have rewritten history." "Unchained Eagle is an account of the unification of two countries, the challenges they faced and the new and more confident Germany that emerged from the upheaval."--Jacket.
