Beskrivelse fra forhandleren Saxo DK:

> ‘A noteworthy achievement . . . Highly recommended for readers wanting a deeper understanding of how and why Germany took the disastrous course that it did during the Hitler years.’ — Frederick Taylor, British novelist and historian A micro-history of ‘Charlemagne’s city’ in the First and Second World Wars, its inhabitants’ embrace of Nazism, and Churchill’s response. This book narrates the tumultuous era of total war through the fate of Aachen—Imperial Germany’s seat of power for 600 years, site of Charlemagne’s coronation as Holy Roman Emperor, and a place with greater geopolitical significance for Adolf Hitler in 1944 than Stalingrad in 1943. This was a stark contrast with the events of the Great War: in 1918, the Imperial German Army had abandoned Aachen in a rout-like flight. In the Nazi period, however, Aachen became a major symbol of Germany’s defiance against the Allies. For Hitler—his mind warped after surviving the Stauffenberg bomb plot—Germany’s westernmost city became pivotal in his last-ditch defence of the ‘thousand-year Reich’. War Comes to Aachen weaves together the city’s story from 1900, tracing its entrenched Catholic orthodoxy, its growth as an industrial urban centre, the demise of democracy, the rise of Nazism, the two world wars, and the Holocaust. The book surveys Churchill’s wartime leadership and the destruction of pre-war Aachen through the lenses of military history and the anthropology of aerial bombing. Philip W. Blood’s absorbing history concludes with Allied efforts to reshape German society after 1945, and with the use of remembrance as a means of socio-political control. Considers how remembrance is used as a means of socio-political control Author is a British military historian who lives in Aachen Despite its key role, Aachen has had little attention in English-language histories
