John Wheeler-Bennett argues with authoritative precision that the Reichswehr and Wehrmacht were never truly apolitical institutions, tracing their entanglements with the Weimar Republic, the rise of National Socialism, and the failed resistance movements that culminated in the July 1944 assassination attempt on Hitler. Drawing on a vast range of primary sources and personal access to key figures, the author presents a richly detailed and unflinching account of how military ambition, ideological compromise, and institutional hubris brought Germany to ruin. Written with the gravitas and narrative command of a seasoned historian-diplomat, this essential volume remains a definitive study of the relationship between armed force and political power in modern Germany.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956289024219,"sku":"2026100008464-SECONDHAND","price":60.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/1dbe7574-3472-49fb-84c2-542ef5ec3f40.png?v=1783499382","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100008464-secondhand-the-nemesis-of-power-the-german-army-in-politics-1918-1945","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
