Reviews
`An intelligent, well-written, and necessary introduction to the literary works of Kurt Eisner.' SOUTH ATLANTIC REVIEW
`Since Eisner's activities before World War I ... are seldom examined, we can be grateful to receive new and interesting information in the monograph. It develops Eisner's concept of propagandistic art, and presents his own literary output ... A welcome addition to our knowledge.' GERMAN QUARTERLY
