'I am the sole master of German policy and my country must follow me wherever I go' Kaiser Wilhelm IIKing of Prussia, German Emperor, war leader and defeated exile, Kaiser Wilhelm II was one of the most important - and most controversial - figures in the history of twentieth-century Europe. But how much power did he really have?The acclaimed historian Christopher Clark follows Kaiser Wilhelm's political career from his youth at the Hohenzollern court through the turbulent decades of the Wilhelmine era into global war and the collapse of Germany in 1918, to his last days.

What were his political goals and his success in achieving them? How did he project authority and exercise influence?
