Summary

"And the Kaiser Abdicates: The German Revolution November 1918-August 1919" by S. Miles Bouton, recounts the dramatic fall of the German Emperor and the birth of a republic after World War I. The book paints a picture of a society ripe for change, where wartime suffering and hunger fueled revolutionary ideas, ultimately shattering the illusion of an unshakeable German government, and revealing an underlying build-up of dissatisfaction which made the Kaiser's abdication unavoidable.
