Caesars in goose step

About this book

"In presenting the following sketches of the masters of Germany, I have sought to portray them against the background of their own development and the environment that served as a vehicle to elevate them to power. They are mostly little men -- little in stature and in vision. Their ideas of government are comparable with those of medieval robber barons. And a Europe dominated by them would see a revival of those smash-and-grab principles which the world slowly fought down in that thousand years of struggle now known as the Dark Ages"--Page x-xi.
