The book is organized into major time periods, and within those, by region. St\u00fchlingen is covered separately in the section dealing with the period up to the Westphalian Peace, and again in a section that traces the period up to the Napoleonic Wars. Within these sections, the geography extends from Heidelberg, along the Rhine, and up to Lake Constance \u2013 a wide field to cover indeed, but not enough.
