À propos de cet audio
In this narrative of extraordinary richness, depth, and authority, America's preeminent biographer/historian explored the German national character as no other writer has done. The Arms of Krupp brings to life Europe's wealthiest, most powerful family, a 400-year German dynasty that developed the world's most technologically advanced weapons, from cannons to submarines to antiaircraft guns; provided arms to generations of German leaders, including the Kaiser and Hitler; operated private concentration camps during the Nazi era; survived conviction at Nuremberg; and wielded enormous influence on the course of world events. William Manchester's galvanizing account of the rise and fall of the Krupp dynasty is history as it should be written - alive with all its terrifying power.

very interesting but preformance choppy
This audiobook was very interesting and that alone made it possible to finish. The narration is so choppy it seems like it was done with a AI reading using the narrators voice. On top of that there are soooo many phrases repeated in other languages (mostly German) that the whole book takes way longer to get through because you're listening to everything twice. To boot, some of the phrases aren't even translated so you're left to infer the meaning. This book could have been shortened by probably 8 hours and would have been a lot better, especially with a better narration.

A fascinating story about steel and arms.
As someone with a Metallurgy and Manufacturing background I found this book fascinating and very interesting. The portion of the story that deals with the period of Nazi rule is challenging to listen to, but important and factual. Lest we forget that these things really did happen, and that we cannot allow them to be repeated in the 21st century.
