A very readable account that effectively dismantles myths and legends that have grown up around an important and neglected subject.' Jeff Rutherford, H-German 'Definitive' Die Welt 'Persuasive and readable' Westdeutsche Zeitung 'Rarely is so much historical knowledge presented in such little space.' Deutschlandfunk
