The Path to European Union: From the Marshall Plan to the Common Market

'œThis painstaking account...avoids the breezy overoptimism which has characterized so many recent studies of this topic. The narrative is prosaic, comprehensive, and detailed, and as much attention is given to the political as to the economic aspects of the story....The concluding section deals comparatively briefly with the failure of the European Defense Treaty and the launching of the Common Market, and the author correctly predicts that Britain's entry will not be swift.'' Virginia Quarterly ReviewHans A. Schmitt is the author of 'The Path to European Union: From the Marshall Plan to the Common Market', published 1981 under ISBN 9780313231070 and ISBN 0313231079.
