Review

'The Kaiser and his Court is solid and speculative; it is cautious and provocative. It is brilliant history.' Washington Times

'... superbly researched and fluently written.' Andrew Roberts, The Sunday Telegraph

'... cool, spare, scholarly. But for all that, John Röhl has written a startling, even sensational book ... [his] brilliant study chillingly reveals Kaiser Wilhelm II as a grandparent of the great horrors of the twentieth century.' Peter Bradshaw, The Evening Standard

Book Description

This book analyses the extraordinary personality of Kaiser Wilhelm II, his anti-semitism, the nature of his rule, and the neo-absolutist culture of Berlin court society.
