'... the authors has successfully risen to the original challenge of being concise ... the author has managed to write no simply a concise history, but also an interpretive one that can serve as a starting point for stimulating argument.'

This is not simply a potted history; it is a nuanced and sophisticated interpretive synthesis that examines the long and idiosyncratic trajectory of this patchwork-empire-turned-rump-state from an unfailingly original-and often unsparingly critical-analytical perspective.

Journal of Austrian History Yearbook, "...Steven Beller should be congratulated for fitting not only the nuts and bolts of the development and growth of the hereditary dominons of the Habsburgs from their obscure Swiss origins into the modern state of Austria, but also a good portion of both cultural and social history into just 300 pages....Her book provides a valuable benchmark for future research on changing employment policy regimes." --Jutta A.

Synopsis
For a small, prosperous country in the middle of Europe, modern Austria has a very large and complex history, extending far beyond its current borders. Today's Austrians have a problematic relationship with that history, whether with the multi-national history of the Habsburg Monarchy, or with the time between 1938 and 1945 when Austrians were Germans in Hitler's Third Reich. Steven Beller's gripping and comprehensive account traces the remarkable career of Austria through its many transformations, from German borderland, to dynastic enterprise, imperial house, Central European great power, failed Alpine republic, German province, and then successful Alpine republic, building up a picture of the layers of Austrian identity and heritage and their diverse sources. It is a story full of anomalies and ironies, a case study of the other side of European history, without the easy answers of more clearly national narratives, and hence far more relevant to today's world., For a small, prosperous country in the middle of Europe, modern Austria has a very large and complex history, extending far beyond its current borders. In a gripping narrative supported by beautiful illustrations, Steven Beller traces the remarkable career of Austria from German borderland to successful Alpine republic., Steven Beller traces the remarkable career of Austria from German borderland to successful Alpine republic.
