A landmark political memoir, Memoirs presents the firsthand account of Franz von Papen, one of the most controversial figures in twentieth-century German politics. As Chancellor of Germany in 1932 and later Vice-Chancellor under Adolf Hitler, von Papen chronicles his extraordinary career spanning two world wars, the collapse of the Weimar Republic, and the catastrophic rise of the Nazi regime. Written with the conviction of a man determined to justify his actions to history, the narrative details his diplomatic postings, his role in the backroom dealings that brought Hitler to power, and his own turbulent acquittal at the Nuremberg Trials. This is an essential — if deeply partisan — primary source for anyone seeking to understand the political machinations and moral failures that shaped modern Europe.
