Personality and Power: Builders and Destroyers of Modern Europe Kershaw Ian
One of New York Magazine's Most Anticipated Books of the FallHow far can a single leader alter the course of history?From one of the leading historians of twentieth-century Europe and the author of the definitive biography of Hitler, Personality and Power is a masterful reckoning with how character conspired with opportunity to create the modern age's uniquely devastating despots--and how and why other countries found better paths. Whole societies were reshaped and wars were fought, often with a merciless contempt for the most basic norms. The modern era saw the emergence of individuals who had command over a terrifying array of instruments of control, persuasion and death.
At the summit of these societies were leaders whose personalities somehow enabled them to do whatever they wished, regardless of the consequences for others.Ian Kershaw's new book
