The article discusses the book "European Alliances and Alignments, 1871-1890," by William L. Langer. The year 1871 marked the beginning of a period in international relations which ended only with the World War. In that year the unification of the German Empire was completed and the diplomatic supremacy of Germany in Europe insured by the defeat of France at Sedan. In achieving its unification Germany, however, had won the implacable enmity of France. Strong popular movements against the wrongs inflicted by the peace treaties arose in both countries. Professor Langer has traced the diplomatic maneuvering of this period in great detail.
