Walther Rathenau: His Life and Work is a biographical account of the life and achievements of Walther Rathenau, a prominent German industrialist, politician, and writer who lived from 1867 to 1922. Written by Harry Kessler, a contemporary of Rathenau and an influential figure in the German cultural scene, the book provides a comprehensive overview of Rathenau's personal and professional life. The book covers Rathenau's early years, his education, and his rise to prominence as a successful businessman and entrepreneur. It also delves into his political career, including his appointment as Germany's Minister of Reconstruction after World War I, as well as his contributions to the German war effort during the conflict. In addition to his business and political pursuits, the book also explores Rathenau's intellectual interests and his role as a writer and philosopher. It examines his views on economics, technology, and culture, and his efforts to promote international cooperation and understanding. Overall, Walther Rathenau: His Life and Work provides a fascinating insight into the life of one of Germany's most influential figures of the early 20th century, and offers a valuable perspective on the social, cultural, and political developments of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
