518 Pages, Published 2000 by Unc Press Books
ISBN-13: 978-0-8078-6074-8, ISBN: 0-8078-6074-3

"The suspicion that characterized the British government's view of Wilhelm II and his empire was reflected, possibly even more intently, in the military. After the turn of the century the Kaiser had little to do with the British military and naval attachés posted to London and had few friends elsewhere in the service.” He and the most formidable naval personality of the era, Admiral Sir John Fisher, who was created Baron Fisher of K ..."

"In this investigation of the German foreign office from 1871 to 1914, Lamar Cecil focuses on the people who conceived and executed German diplomacy rather than on diplomatic policies and stratagems. The author analyzes the men and their careers, isolating the characteristics common to the diplomats, the reasons for their selection, and the effect on their careers of various considerations of background, personality, and circumstance.

ISBN-13: 978-0-19-536289-3, ISBN: 0-19-536289-6

"Motivated at bottom by what the misogynistic Eulenburg described as "a feminine tendency to wish to please," Wilhelm II, despite his assertions to the contrary, was a leader keenly sensitive to the attitudes and responses of others and profoundly influenced by "the views or opinions of the day.” Wilhelm's sensitivity to the reactions of others, the product of his vulnerability to those reactions, did not translate into a concern fo ..."

A skilful, psychoanalytically informed analysis of the Kaiser's character, the book shows how the powerful leader of Germany's `Second Reich' became the slave of public opinion - restles ..."

Paperback, 336 Pages, Published 2005 by Cambridge University Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-521-01990-3, ISBN: 0-521-01990-7

"Kaiser Wilhelm II (1859 1941) is one of the most fascinating figures in European history. Inheriting the 'mightiest throne on earth' in 1888, he played a central part in fashioning the policies which culminated in the catastrophe of 1914 18, the collapse of the Reich, and his own abdication. To an extraordinary extent he was also representative of his epoch: brilliant, bizarre, aggressive, insecure. Yet German historians have virtually ..."
