My ancestor was born in 1832 in Rhoden, Halberstadt and came here in 1854. I ran across two books that are text books i believe, by Phillip G Dwyer one is called The Rise of Prussia, 1700-1830 and the second is called Modern Prussian History, 1830-1947. I was looking for maps of the the area at the time that I found them and they sound interesting. These books are a bit spendy but are on Amazon.com. hope that is a bit of a help.
