Hey,

I'm on an extremely long summer break (3 and a half months) and am trying to find books to help me read around A2. However, looking for a Kaiser to Fuhrer textbook, Edexcel do not release their official until next year and Access to History until September, by which time is a little on the late side.

In terms of Euro International Relations, I have the coursewor option sheet photocopied by my teacher in which I think I'm going to read (Farmer A. An Introduction to Modern European History, 1890-1990 (Hodder Murray, Access to History, Context 2000)) but anything a little more concise would be muchly appreciated.

Further, is this Coursework book appropriate for 2009 new spec History students?

Thank you! :D

Hmmm. Are you talking about Option E War and Peace: Twentieth Century International Relations; E 1 The World in Crisis 1879-1941? For both this and also module D1 (Kaiser to Fuhrer) have you realised that there is a very full bibliography published by Edexcel here.

The blurb says that it is 'a new series for Edexcel’s new exam specification for 2008', so I think that means the answer is 'yes'.

Although edexcels book will not be published until October they have released sample chapters (1-4) on their website. The links to which are below. Hopefully that should keep you going until October :)
