	H-Net Review: Donna Harsch on Die Geschichte der SPD in Mecklenburg und Vorpommern
		This book traces the origins and evolution of the German Social Democratic party (SPD) in the northern provinces/state of Mecklenburg and West Pomerania from the mid-nineteenth century through the 1990s.
		The rebirth of the Mecklenburg SPD was robust and by late-1945 its membership had swelled beyond the numbers of the Weimar years.
		Of the Mecklenburg SPD's stand on these questions, we learn only that the majority followed the national party's endorsement of war credits, although a Mecklenburg Reichstag member opposed the war.
