Schaefer. In the years following Germany's defeat in the Great War, General Hans von Seekt — a "supreme soldier" and military strategist — was tasked with rebuilding the nation's armed forces, using a far-sighted and reasonable approach in the face of crippling economic sanctions. Ultimately, this clashed with the opposing view looking for revenge, a view held by Adolf Hitler and the Nazis. This title explores this dynamic and how the Third Reich's thirst for vengeance and military might won out over reason and caution. 288 pages, B&W photos, 6¼"x 9¼", hardcover.
