"NEW YORK TIMES" BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF "A SPY AMONG FRIENDS
"
In 1886 Elisabeth Nietzsche, Friedrich's bigoted, imperious sister,
founded a "racially pure" colony in Paraguay together with a band
of blonde-haired fellow Germans. Over a century later Ben Macintyre
sought out the survivors of this "Nueva Germania" to discover the
remains of this bizarre colony. "Forgotten Fatherland" vividly
recounts his arduous adventure locating the survivors, while also
tracing the colorful history of Elisabeth's return to Europe, where
she inspired the mythical cult of her brother's philosophy and
later became a mentor to Hitler. Brilliantly researched and
mordantly funny, this is an illuminating portrait of a forgotten
people and of a woman whose deep influence on the twentieth century
can only now be fully understood.
