Paperback. Condición: New. Illustrated. Alfred von Tirpitz (1849-1930), who joined the Prussian Navy in 1865 as a midshipman, was chiefly responsible for rapidly developing and enlarging the German Navy, especially the High Seas Fleet, from 1897 until the years immediately prior to the First World War. Epkenhans uses newly discovered documents to provide a fresh treatment of this important naval leader. In 1897, Tirpitz became the Secretary of State of the Imperial Navy Department. In four major building acts of 1898, 1900, 1908, and 1912, and, in working closely with Kaiser Wilhelm II, Tirpitz expanded the Imperial Navy from a small coastal force into a major blue-water navy. Great Britain, reacting with alarm to this challenge to its overseas trade and naval supremacy, accelerated the naval arms race by launching a revolutionary type of battleship, the Dreadnought, in 1906 and entering into strategic alliances with France and Russia. By the start of the First World War in 1914, the British Royal Navy still held a sizable advantage in capital ships over Germany, so that only one notable fleet action, Jutland in 1916, took place during the war. Tirpitz, who had become the German Navy commander with the outbreak of the war, thereafter became a staunch advocate of unrestricted submarine warfare. This policy did not differentiate between neutral and belligerent shipping and proved so controversial with the neutral United States that Germany was forced to retract it, albeit only temporarily. In the meantime, Tirpitz tendered his resignation to the Kaiser, who surprisingly accepted it. Tirpitz remained a minor figure thereafter, later serving the right-wing Fatherland Party as a deputy in the Reichstag.…

paperback. Condición: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Hardcover. Condición: Wie neu. Schutzumschlag. Die Geschichte Preußens ist eine Geschichte voller Widersprüche. Militarismus und preußische Tugenden stehen im Gegensatz zu kulturellen Hochleistungen, dem Liberalismus und dem Fortschrittsstreben Preußens. Die Autoren, Koryphäen der Preußenforschung, liefern einen sehr gut lesbaren Überblick über die preußische Geschichte vom Beginn des 16. Jahrhunderts bis zum dramatischen Ende in den 40er Jahren des 20. Jahrhunderts. Dabei hinterfragen sie die verbreiteten Klischees und Vorurteile, aber auch die vorbehaltlose Bewunderung für den preußischen Staat. Neben der chronologischen Darstellung der Ereignisse gibt es einen umfangreichen Teil zu Staat und Gesellschaft: u.a. über das Dreiklassenwahlrecht, Universitäten und Wissenschaft oder die Entwicklung vom Agrar- zum Industriestaat. Große Persönlichkeiten wie Bismarck, die Moltkes und Gräfin Dönhoff werden in eindrucksvollen Kurzbiografien portraitiert. Darüber hinaus schildern die Autoren die entscheidenden Schlachten wie z.B. Leuthen und Tannenberg. Anmerkungen: Lizenz des Theiss-Verl., Stuttgart. Literaturangaben. Illustrationen, Karte. Mit Schutzumschlag, 216 Seiten. Bitte beachten: Buch wiegt 1500g und deshalb betragen die Portokosten innerhalb von Deutschland 5,20 Euro. …
