Long Heads and Round Heads: Or What's the Matter With Germany (Classic Reprint)

Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the deep-seated causes behind the unprecedented savagery and brutality displayed by the German forces in World War I. The author traces the history of the German people back to the Stone Age, examining the migration patterns and racial struggles that shaped their ethnic makeup. The author argues that the Germanic peoples are descended from a mixture of Nordic, Mediterranean, and Alpine races, but that the Alpine (round-headed) race has been steadily gaining ground on the Nordic (long-headed) race in recent centuries. This shift in racial dominance has led to a decline in the Nordic traits of intelligence, creativity, and morality, and a corresponding rise in the Alpine traits of aggression, obedience, and cruelty. The author concludes that this racial transformation is the key to understanding the behavior of the German people in World War I and serves as a warning about the dangers of racial decline and the importance of preserving the Nordic heritage. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
