The Peace Kaiser: Wilhelm II's Early Reign (Part 1)

Kaiser Wilhelm II is one of the most controversial figures in history, and the majority of the time he is viewed in a negative light. This video officially kicks off my new series titled "The Peace Kaiser", in which I attempt to rehabilitate Wilhelm's legacy and clear up many myths about him. In this video, I will go into detail about his acts and decisions shortly after he was coronated.

I would also like to state that the vast majority of my research regarding this video came from the book "The Innocence of Wilhelm II" by author Christina Croft. While I may have credited the author in the description, I wanted to also bring additional light to the work since I see it as extremely important. In fact, some of the passages and paragraphs in the video are taken directly from her work, word-for-word since she makes an excellent case regarding the Kaiser. I would very highly recommend all of you buy her book since it also goes into detail about many issues I never mentioned, especially regarding his years before becoming Kaiser.
