The American Edge

The shocking true story of the German monarchy's collaboration with the Nazis - an award-winning bestseller in Germany **AWARDED THE GERMAN NON-FICTION PRIZE 2022** 'Malinowksi's work is a near-masterpiece, relating a story not synthesised in this way before, and about which any number of self-serving myths exist' Simon Heffer, Daily Telegraph The disappearance of the Hohenzollern family from the history of Germany in November 1918 as the Kaiser fled into Dutch exile is one of the most startling, rapid instances of a once all-powerful royal family becoming almost overnight irrelevant and marginal. Except this is not exactly what happened. Stephan Malinowski's German bestseller is an extraordinary work of recovery. It suited both the Weimar Republic and then the Third Reich to view the Hohenzollerns with contempt, and yet the royal family's hatred of the former and approval of the latter were for millions of Germans a significant factor in their own view of their country and its government. With forensic and often shocking detail, Malinowski shows that, far from being ridiculous, marginal figures the Hohenzollerns lay at the heart of Germany's ongoing nightmare. Despite formally losing power, the members of the royal family remained prominent, catastrophically allowing many other conservative Germans to stay distanced from the new republic and to eventually betray conservative traditions and values. Battered from both left and right, the Republic collapsed in 1933 in part because conservative forces, fearful of both Communism and Fascism, had abandoned their own principles just as much as the leading members of former royal family had, who were themselves beguiled by and fooled by Hitler. This is an important and shocking book, as well as a devastating picture of an inadequate and trivial royal family painfully underequipped to fulfil its role.

A History of Collaboration

The Hohenzollerns and the Nazis

The riveting new exploration of American history - and how it has led to the era of Donald Trump - from the award-winning political broadcaster. 'A well argued and elegant answer to the question, 'how did America get to this place?'' Justin Webb, presenter of Americast 'Pithy, entertaining and informative' Guardian Trump's second term, even more than his first, is often called 'unprecedented'. But history shows that Trump and his policies are as American as apple pie... Much of what Donald Trump does seems maverick and even mad. His actions and policy pronouncements are a stark rupture from the American style of leadership that we have lived with all our lives. Plenty of people - on both sides of the Atlantic - have argued that he will destroy his country's democracy. But whether we like them or not, his trade tariffs, his determination to deport tens of thousands of people, and his apparent contempt for the rule of law are deeply rooted in American history. Made in America shows how the ideal of liberty has been tested in past generations, from the first intolerant Pilgrims to the brutal invasion of Mexico, and reveals the dark side of the American Dream in order to offer urgent lessons to our turbulent present. Here's what readers are saying about Made in America 'Essential read about Trump . . . informative and frightening' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'Brilliant. A great romp through the not so sparkling history of the US' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 'A very well written and informative book' ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

The dark history that led to Donald Trump

Made in America

A distinctive collection of essays capturing Lawrence Freedman's insightful analysis across war, strategy, and foreign policy and providing a unique view of the key thinkers that shaped history. One of the world's foremost scholars of warfare, both historical and contemporary, Lawrence Freedman has also played an important role in policymaking, serving as an official historian of both the Falklands War and on the UK inquiry into the 2003 Iraq War. Since the publication of his best-selling Strategy in 2013, Freedman has continued to explore many of the themes he raised in the book while commenting on ongoing conflicts. On Strategists and Strategy combines the best of Freedman's many essays from the past ten years on warfare and foreign policy, alongside more personal pieces on the scholars who influenced him and his own life trajectory. The range of his interests is demonstrated in this lively and engaging collection of essays. They cover a wide range of topics, including Vladimir Putin's strategic fanaticism; arguments on why we don't take tactics seriously enough and why "stalemate" is used incorrectly as a metaphor for deadlock in war; considerations of the dilemmas of nuclear deterrence; and what Covid tells us about crisis management. The material on his own life is richly contextual, attuned to the broader historical trends and social forces in 1960s and 1970s Britain that shaped his experiences. This volume not only provides a broad-ranging sampling of Freedman's most representative work, but also offers a unique window into a half century of world history.

 Wolfgang M. Schmitt zeigt, wie uns der Film - gerade dank seiner Künstlichkeit, der Montage, Stars und Spezialeffekte - einen anderen, mit der Brille der Fiktion geschärften Blick auf die Realität und auf uns selbst eröffnet. Sein ungewöhnlicher Ratgeber ist eine Liebeserklärung an Hollywood und zugleich ein flammendes Plädoyer für ein ideologiekritisches, kontraintuitives Sehen.

This open access book explores the political utility and consequences of memory laws with a focus on how militant memory laws frame, underpin and generate international conflicts. Proceeding from Russia's ongoing aggression against Ukraine, this examination plots how memory laws have preceded, partially led to, and encouraged the outbreak of the war itself via Russian propaganda. It also offers a broader perspective looking at developments in the Baltic States, Belarus, Finland, Germany, Hungary, and Poland, as well as in European (Council of Europe and European Union) law. Bringing together scholars with diverse perspectives, this book provides both analysis and conceptual reflection for scholars assessing the politics of memory laws. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open Access was funded by the University of Copenhagen.

The Politics of Memory Laws

'An epic account ... myth-busting ... Bull writes with knightly brio and packs a great deal of local and global history into his authoritative book' Pratinav Anil, The Times A major new history of the epic siege of the island fortress of Malta Even as the great siege began it was understood by both sides to be an epic - a potentially decisive encounter between an uneasy assortment of soldiers, native Maltese, adventurers and Knights Hospitaller on a strategically crucial but near waterless island and a vast, seemingly all-powerful Ottoman armada. With three quarters of the Mediterranean's coasts already in the hands of the Sultan and his allies, all eyes were now on Malta. This superb new account of the siege emphasises the crucial importance of the siege while at the same time putting it in a far wider context. While since mistakenly recast as a climactic battle between the West and the East, it was also much more interesting and nuanced than that - both sides had many other interests and priorities beyond Malta. Süleyman the Magnificent had conquered and subsumed regions from Hungary to the Persian Gulf; Philip II was building an empire in America and Asia. Drawing on a wide range of eyewitness stories, Marcus Bull gives a vivid sense of the period's technologies, values and assumptions. It was a grim world built on the labour of many thousands of disposable galley-slaves, shockingly brutal forms of warfare and religious absolutism. But it was also a world filled with the most extraordinary new discoveries and ideas. Both these worlds come together in the siege and in this book.

No Ordinary Deaths

There is a specific energy to it. Cafes and shops close their shutters. Darkness descends. 'The air begins to tingle', wrote John Dos Passos of twenties New York. 'It's tonight if you drink enough, talk enough, walk far enough, that the train of magical events will begin.' Barely four centuries ago, music, fashion, sex, architecture, art and booze first fused to create what we now call nightlife. It happened, strangely enough, in 17th-century Japan, in a remote marshland outside the shogun's capital. This den of hedonism and iniquity became a breeding ground for new ideas - and while the venues have changed, nightlife has been at the frontier of cultural innovation ever since. Up All Night is the story of the good times and the great ones. Who invented jazz? What did 18th century Londoners do for entertainment? Why was Detroit the birthplace of techno? Who built Las Vegas? And what, in our increasingly online lives, are we missing when we pass up the chance of a big night out? Join party historian Imogen Willetts for a guided tour of history's wildest nights out - piecing together tantalising ephemera and foggy reminiscences from shogunate Japan to noughties Hollywood, and every iconic scene in between. 'Spills over with colourful anecdotes . . . Reading Up All Night makes you want to put it down - if only to step out into the seductive, thrilling night' DAILY TELEGRAPH 'A sparkling cultural history . . . Its procession of nocturnal scenes is immersive, intoxicating and full of surprises' MIKE JAY, author of PSYCHONAUTS 'A jaunty, jam-packed history of big nights out that revels in spectacle and theatricality' EMMA WARREN, author of DANCE YOUR WAY HOME

A History of Going Out

Up All Night

'Richly-layered and packed with insight, this riveting account of terrible events tells us as much about the present as it does the past' Patrick Bishop, author of Paris '44 From Peter the Great to Putin, a biography of the city Hitler tried - and failed - to wipe off the map The siege of Saint Petersburg - then known as Leningrad - stands as a testament to human endurance. Intended by the Nazis as civilian extermination, the numbers who perished in this 900-day ordeal almost outweighed the entire total of British and American troop deaths in the Second World War. The city's 2.5 million residents began to starve as rations shrank and dwindled. As temperatures plunged to minus 43°C, electricity faltered, and fuel ran out. Yet, amid this suffering, the resilience of culture and hope shone through, with orchestras and theatres defiantly continuing their performances, a flicker of humanity against the backdrop of despair. In Saint Petersburg, bestselling historian Sinclair McKay book chronicles the horrors of the siege through immersive prose and gripping first-hand accounts. He also traces the pivotal importance of Saint Petersburg across the centuries, from Peter the Great's visionary founding of the city to the way it has shaped its most infamous son, Vladimir Putin. From its darkest moments to its enduring spirit, Saint Petersburg explore the layers of history that have shaped this extraordinary place. 'McKay is a gifted writer; his prose has the cadence, tone and power of a Shostakovich symphony. Horror is majestically conveyed' Gerard DeGroot, The Times
