About the book

The Shortest History of Berlin by Rory MacLean is a history book.

Berlin's story is one of constant reinvention 'Yesterday echoes along today's streets, and the ideas conjured up by Berlin's dreamers, dictators, liars and artists seem as solid as its bricks and mortar.'

Shaped by waves of death and war, and all but obliterated in both the Hundred Years and Second World Wars, Berlin is not an ancient city. Founded in the thirteenth century, this small trading post became the capital of Prussia. Berlin's youth has always spurred it towards the future. Yet at the same time it longed for a noble past to perpetuate its own myth.
