About this listen

Weltgeschichte erzählt am Schicksal ihrer Protagonisten.

August 1939. Flirrende Hitze in Mitteleuropa. Das Korn wird gemäht. Ferienzeit. Es könnten unbeschwerte Tage sein, aber etwas Verstörendes liegt in der Luft. Die einen sagen, ein neuer Krieg stehe bevor. Die anderen schwören, der Frieden sei sicher. In diesem unruhigen August schaut die Welt auf den Obersalzberg.

Hier verbringt Adolf Hitler seinen Sommer. Von hier aus wagt er ein riskantes Spiel. Hauke Friederichs erzählt die Geschichte jenes Sommers, in dem die Welt am 1. September 1939 um 4:45 Uhr ins Chaos gestoßen wurde. Aus dem Funkenflug entstand ein Weltenbrand, und nichts war mehr wie zuvor.

Mit: Carl Jacob Burckhardt, Wilhelm Canaris, Winston Churchill, Birger Dahlerus, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, Gustav Kleikamp, Reinhard Heydrich, Iwan Maiski, Katia Mann, Unity Mitford, Sophie Scholl, William Shirer, Swetlana Iossifowna Stalina, Ernst von Weizsäcker.

>> Diese ungekürzte Hörbuch-Fassung genießt du exklusiv nur bei Audible.
