George S. Vascik is Associate Professor of History at Miami University, USA. Mark R. Sadler is an independent scholar and Honors graduate of Miami University, USA.
The destructive power of myth is on display in this masterful book. Vascik and Sadler assemble all the useful documents surrounding the Stab-in-the-Back myth. Providing just enough guidance, they allow readers to fashion their own understanding of how self-serving lies can undermine a democracy and alter the history of a nation. * Richard S.
