Description
Matthias Erzberger (1875-1921) war der einflußreichste Abgeordnete der spätwilhelminischen Zeit. Bei Ausbruch des 1. Weltkriegs wurde er von der Regierung zum Leiter der »Zentralstelle für Auslandsdienst« berufen. Über seine zahlreichen Besprechungen und Reisen in halb Europa machte er sich detaillierte Aufzeichnungen. Sie decken die Weltkriegsjahre ab, brechen aber 1918/19 ab, als Erzberger Mitglied der Reichsregierung wurde. Das Gros der hier vorgelegten Quellen ist bislang unveröffentlicht. »Matthias Erzberger - at the Loom of History.
