It will also be useful for undergraduate courses on modern German history and for historians of European leisure and culture.

It covers a whole range of popular amusements and recreations on offer including festivals, pubs, Tingel-Tangels, dance halls, clubs and cinema. The book contributes to the debate over the role of a working-class culture in Imperial Germany."@en
