A masterwork of history-restored to print and made available for the first time in trade paperback.
In this massive, compellingly readable book, America"s preeminent biographer/historian brings to life Europe"s richest, most powerful family, a 400-yeardynasty that developed the world"s most technologically advanced weapons (from cannons to submarines to anti-aircraft guns); provided arms to generations of German leaders, including the Kaiser and Hitler; operated private concentration camps during the Nazi era; survived conviction at Nuremberg; and wielded enormous influence on the course of world events. William Manchester"s account of the rise and fall of the Krupp dynasty is history as it should be written-alive with all its terrifying power. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге The Arms of Krupp: The Rise and Fall of the Industrial Dynasty that Armed Germany at War (William Manchester)
