Description:
A member of the von Moltke family has played a crucial role in every major crisis of German history -- from the Franco-Prussian War to World Wars I and II. In 1871, Field Marshal von Moltke made Germany a major power in Europe when he and his army conquered France after defeating Austria. His nephew, Helmuth Johannes Ludwig von Moltke, was Chief of Staff of the German armies in 1914. In World War II, Helmuth James von Moltke worked for the Third Reich's intelligence operations until he was executed for treason in the last months of the war, having supplied the Allies with strategic information that was instrumental in the final outcome of the war. Brilliant, absorbing, and filled with personal histories and anecdotes, Blood & Iron paints a broad picture of modern Germany through the remarkable story of a fascinating family.
