Insight to the soul of bavaria/germany

History of upper bavaria at the beginning ot the 20th century.F. wrote it in the manner of a journalist of the year 2000 who was trying to get a picture of the events of these time. (written 1930!)If you are interested to know why someone like Hitler was actually elected and finally let to WWII, this book will give you the answer.Written by someone to whom the picture of the well-off jew of the nazi was literally minted, a son of a rich jewish banker-family in Munich, Bavaria, art-coinosseur, privatier and romancier.F. intensly loved germany and his people but Germany of these days tried to get rid of his rich jewish heritage and F. has to leave for good, first to France and as these was growing hostile, too, to California.F. never lost his love to bavaria and if you want to know why, and how the holocaust begun, thats your book.
