WEIMAR GERMANY
Promise and Tragedy
With a rich thematic narrative and detailed portraits of some of Weimar's greatest figures, this comprehensive history recaptures the excitement and drama as it unfolded, viewing Weimar in its own right-and not as a mere prelude to the Nazi era.
Setting the stage for this story, Weitz takes the reader on a walking tour of Berlin to see and feel what life was like there in the 1920s, when modernity and the modern city-with its bright lights, cinemas, "new women," cabarets, and sleek department stores-were new.
Thoroughly up-to-date, skillfully written, and strikingly illustrated, WEIMAR GERMANY brings to life as never before an era of creativity unmatched in the twentieth century - one whose influence and inspiration we still feel today.
Eric D. Weitz is Distinguished McKnight University Professor of History at the University of Minnesota.
