This final volume of John
С
(¡.
Ruh
Is acclaimed biography of
Kaiser
Wilhelm
II reveals the Kaiser's central role in the origins
of the First World War. The book examines
Wilhelms
pad in the
Hoer
War, the Russo-Japanese War, the naval arms race with
Britain and Germany's rivalrywith the United States, as well as in
the crises over Morocco, Bosnia and
Agadir.
It also sheds new light
on the public scandals which accompanied his reign, from the
allegations of homosexuality made against his intimate friends
to the Daily Telegraph affair. Above all,
lohn Höhl
scrutinises
the mounting tension between Germany and Britain and the
increasing pressure the Kaiser exerted on hisAustro-Hungarian
ally from
1912
onwards to resolve the Serbian problem. Following
Germany's defeat and Wilhelm's enforced abdication, be charts
the Kaisers bitter experience
o f
ex ile
in I lolland and his frustrated
hopes that Hitler would restore him to the throne. |
