Shortlisted for the National Book Award for Nonfiction (1979).

Pays close attention to the people, parties, and pressure groups that influenced German policy in foreign and domestic matters. Half the book is devoted to the crucial period following the collapse of Germany in World War I. The author deals with Weimar Germany in all its contradictory elements and shows how forces at work before and during the war combined with postwar conditions to sap the strength of the German republic and so brought Hitler's Nazi regime to power.
