Produktbeschreibung

⭐ Learn German with the Augsburg Saga B1 German Reader (B1 Omnibus)

Learn German through lived history, immersive storytelling, and clear B1-level language in one continuous volume.

Learn German with the Augsburg Saga B1 German Reader (B1 Omnibus) brings together the complete B1.1B1.5 sequence into a single, multi-generational reading experience of more than 195,000 words (print edition approx. 700+ pages). Written for intermediate learners, returning students, and self-study readers, this collection leads you into the modern world: industrialization, factory life, railways, migration, global conflict, hunger, and the fragile hopes of a new century always through carefully graded B1 German designed to strengthen reading fluency naturally and sustainably.

Set mainly in Augsburg, Munich, and German East Africa, these stories accompany several generations from 1870 to 1923. You follow ordinary families as they face war rumors, factory work, new technologies, letters from the front, shortages, epidemics, and hyperinflation. While the historical world becomes broader and more complex, the language remains accessible: longer B1-style sentences, richer vocabulary, clear narration, and natural repetition.

What this Omnibus includes: • Five complete B1 novellas (B1.1B1.5) • Short English introductions before each novella (historical background, cultural notes) • German-only main texts written strictly at the B1 level • Chapter summaries, comprehension questions, and full-sentence answers • Continuous vocabulary reinforcement across all five stories • Quiet, emotionally grounded storytelling rooted in daily life • Historically authentic scenes from 1870 to 1923: workshops, trains, printing presses, battlefront letters, hunger winters, and inflation-era markets

Why this method works

Most B1 readers offer short, unrelated texts. This series instead provides long-form immersion through a continuous family saga that spans multiple levels (A1B2). Because the same family, settings, habits, and conflicts reappear, vocabulary becomes familiar through story and emotional context, not memorization. Learners begin to understand German intuitively, page by page.

At B1, grammar appears naturally inside meaningful scenes: a family waiting for news in 1870, young adults navigating modern work in 1898, changing expectations in 1912, the exhaustion and losses of World War I, and the struggle for survival during the crisis years of 192223.

Who this book is for: • Learners progressing from A2 or returning to German after a break • Self-study readers who enjoy structured, immersive storytelling • Teachers seeking reliable chapter-based reading material for B1 courses • History lovers who appreciate quiet, realistic narratives • Students preparing for B2 who want to build reading stamina

A gateway to the next stage

The B1 Omnibus marks a major step toward reading confidence. If you enjoy this volume, the Augsburg Saga continues at B2, where language becomes deeper, more expressive, and closer to modern German life.

Begin the next chapter of your German journey and experience the Augsburg Saga at a new level of depth.
