Klappentext

'Sebestyen reminds us once again why he is one of the best historians writing today' ANDREW ROBERTS 'As gripping as a novel . . . what canny insight this book offers into the insecurity of our own times' ANNE SEBBA 'Could not be more timely' TIM BOUVERIE 'All our politicians should read it' CLARE MULLEY

The Weimar Republic was Germany's postwar experiment with democracy and a time of unprecedented cultural, intellectual and artistic freedom. But beneath the glamour was a deeply polarised society of extremes plagued by economic disasters, populist leaders fuelling culture wars and an uneasy political settlement that would soon spawn the horrors of Nazism. Covering fifteen years from the end of the First World War to Hitler's appointment as Chancellor, Weimar Germany tells the definitive story of Germany's interwar republic and descent into fascism.
