As the former Foreign Minister and Chancellor of Weimar Germany, Gustav Stresemann is a familiar figure for students of German history-one who, for many, embodied the best qualities of German interwar liberalism. However, a more nuanced and ambivalent picture emerges in this biography by renowned historian Karl Heinrich Pohl, which draws on extensive research and new archival material to enrich our understanding of Stresmann's public image and political career. Pohl memorably explores the personality of a brilliant but flawed politician who endured class anxiety and social marginalization, dying on the eve of Germany's descent into economic and political upheaval.
Karl Heinrich Pohl was Professor of History and Didactics in the History Department of the University of Kiel before his retirement in 2010. He was awarded the Wolf Erich Kellner Prize in 2002 and published widely on German history in the 19th and 20th centuries.
