Sir John W. Wheeler-Bennett tells the story of how the German Army,
having survived the disaster of 1918, proceeded to dominate the
political life of the German Republic, exercising a virtually
paramount degree of power and influence by its very withdrawal from
the active arena of politics: and of how, when later it was
mistaken enough to play politics instead of controlling them, it
began a descent which only ended in abject defeat - militarily,
politically and spiritually. The author reveals the extent of the
responsibility of the Army for bringing the Nazi regime to power,
for tolerating the infamies of that regime once it had attained
power, and for not taking the measures - at a time when only the
Army could have taken them - to remove it from power. In this
second edition a new foreword by Professor Richard Overy sets
Wheeler-Bennett's classic text in a modern context.
