Books by Gerald Stourzh

This study provides a comprehensive examination of the East-West occupation of Austria from the end of World War II to the signing of the Austrian State Treaty in 1955. Examining US, Soviet, British, French, and Austrian sources, the authors trace the complex negotiation process that led to the signing of the treaty.

Spanning both the history of the modern West and his journey as a historian, this work covers the topics that has characterized Gerald Stourzh's career - from Benjamin Franklin to Gustav Mahler, from Alexis de Tocqueville to Charles Beard, from the notion of constitution in 17th-century England to the concept of neutrality in 20th-century Austria.
