To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Its role in the subsequent years was so shadowy and neg- ligible, that in a brief account like this we may leave the Bund entirely out of account after registering the fact that at the Congress of Vienna it was considered the only form of union of which Germany was capable. As soon as the German patriots, aglow with expec- tation, examined what the diplomats had hatched, they were overcome with disappointment. They scoffed at the mock-union foisted on their land, and declared in unequivocal ter...ms that they would not rest until the flimsy fabrication had been blown away and a solid and Progress and Reaction 105 permanent edifice set in its place. But how that result was to be achieved in view of the Austro-Prussian and a heap of other difficulties, no patriot was able to say. With German unification in a state of suspended animation, our interest swings to the second problem with which Prussia embarked on her post-Napoleonic career, the problem of her continued inner upbuilding. I need not here rehearse the story of the Stein reforms further than to note that they had stood the test of fire in the great uprising of 1813.
