====== The Death of Democracy ======
An examination of the Weimar Republic's final years. Accounts of this period I've previously heard (i.e. high school history) didn't even mention Weimar. It's especially important, given today's political climate, to study how fascist movements have consumed nations in the past. A running theme of Hett's account are the ways establishment conservatives sought to use Hitler to strengthen their own positions and ended up handing him the reins of the nation. It's a painful lesson that when you cooperate with fascists, you are helping them win.

Summary and notes coming soon.
