All the Kaiser's Men by Ian Passingham Pdf

Convinced that both God and the Kaiser were on their side, the officers and men of the German Army went to war in 1914, confident that they were destined for a swift and crushing victory in the West. The vaunted Schlieffen Plan on which the anticipated German victory was based expected triumph in the West to be followed by an equally decisive success on the Eastern Front. It was not to be. From the winter of 1914 until the early months of 1918, the struggle on the Western Front was characterised by trench warfare. But our perception of the conflict takes little or no account of the realities of life 'across the wire' in the German trenches. This book redresses that imbalance and reminds us how similar these young German men were to our own Tommies. Drawing from diaries and letters, Ian Passingham charts the hopes and despair of the German soldiers, filling an important gap in the history of the Western Front.

The Kaiser As I Know Him by Arthur Davis Pdf

A Candid and bizarre look at one of the most notorious men in history, Kaiser Wilhelm II who reigned over Germany during World War I. An American dentist wrote this fascinating account of his time spent with the Kaiser and originally published it in 1918 at the end of WW1. How an American dentist served as the Kaiser's dentist for 14 years is a story in and of itself, but what he learned in that time is fascinating. His detailed, personal accounts shed light on the mysterious persona of Germany's last Emporer. Davis originally respected their dentist and patient relationship and felt great guilt about revealing their discussions. Ultimately his ethics dictated that his patriotic duty was to reveal what he learned to the Allies, documented within these pages. This enlarged reprint version includes additional photographs of the Kaiser, the original retro period font, and a modern cover design fit for display. Table of Contents: Chapter 1: "America Must Be Punished!" Chapter 2: The Kaiser At Potsdam Chapter 3: How I Became The Kaiser's Dentist Chapter 4: The Kaiser's Dual Personality Chapter 5: America Disappoints The Kaiser Chapter 6: The Kaiser Defends German War Methods Chapter 7: Democracy's Worst Enemy Chapter 8: The Asian Threat Chapter 9: The Kaiser's Confidence Of Victory Chapter 10: The Kaiser's Plan For World Dominion Chapter 11: Prince Von Pless Chapter 12: The Kaiser's Appraisal Of Public Men Chapter 13: The Kaiserin Chapter 14: The Crown Prince And Others Chapter 15: The Kaiser Himself Chapter 16: The Kaiser At Army Headquarters Chapter 17: The Kaiser And Things American Chapter 18: The Kaiser And The German People Chapter 19: Germany In War Time Chapter 20: The Economic Situation In Germany Chapter 21: Will There Be A German Revolution?

The Kaiser's Web by Steve Berry Pdf

In bestselling author Steve Berry's stunning novel, former Justice Department agent Cotton Malone encounters information from a secret World War II dossier that, if proven true, would not only rewrite history - it could change the political landscape of Europe forever. Two candidates are vying to become Chancellor of Germany. One is a patriot who has served for many years, the other a usurper, stoking the flames of nationalistic hate. Both harbour secrets, but only one knows the truth about the other. Everything turns on the events of one fateful day - April 30, 1945 - and what happened deep beneath Berlin in the Führerbunker. Did Adolf Hitler and Eva Braun die there? Did Martin Bormann, Hitler's close confidant, manage to escape? And possibly even more important, where did billions in Nazi wealth disappear to in the waning days of the war? The answers to these questions will determine who becomes the next Chancellor. Racing from Chile to South Africa, and finally the secret vaults of Switzerland, former Justice Department agent Cotton Malone must uncover the truth about the fates of Hitler, Braun, and Bormann - revelations that could not only transform Europe, but finally expose a mystery known as the Kaiser's Web.
