Kein Volk der Welt hat erlebt, was dem deutschen ‹1923›-Erlebnis entspricht, schrieb Sebastian Haffner im englischen Exil, und Stefan Zweig befand, dass die Geschichte noch nie eine ähnliche Tollhauszeit in solchen riesigen Proportionen produziert habe. Volker Ullrich erzählt auf breiter Quellenbasis die Geschichte dieses Jahrs am Abgrund, das in manchem auf fatale Weise an die heutige Gegenwart erinnert. Nach der vielgerühmten Hitler-Biografie und dem Bestseller Acht Tage im Mai legt der renommierte Journalist und Historiker nun das Panorama einer aus den Fugen geratenen Zeit vor, die Chronik eines in jeder Hinsicht extremen Jahres.

From a New York Times bestselling historian comes a gripping account of the crisis that threatened to unravel the Weimar Republic. The great Austrian writer Stefan Zweig confided in his autobiography: "I have a pretty thorough knowledge of history, but never, to my recollection, has it produced such madness in such gigantic proportions." He was referring to Germany in 1923, a "year of lunacy," defined by hyperinflation, violence, a political system on the verge of collapse, the rise of Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party, and separatist movements threatening to rip apart the German nation.

How Germany’s fledgling democracy nearly collapsed in 1923-and how pro-democracy forces fought back. In 1923, the Weimar Republic faced a series of crises, including foreign occupation of its industrial heartland, rampant inflation, radical violence, and finally Hitler’s infamous "beer hall putsch." Fanning the flames of anti-government and anti-Semitic sentiment, the Nazis tried to violently seize power in Munich, only failing after they were abandoned by like-minded conservatives.
