18 About the Author
C. Edmund Clingan is associate professor of history at Queensborough Community College, City University of New York. He is author of Finance from Kaiser to Führer: Budget Politics in Germany, 1912–1934 (Greenwood, 2001).
The Lives of Hans Luther provides a significant contribution to the
field of Weimar political and economic history. Its treatment of
the financial issues during the 1920s and of the banking crisis in
1931 is particularly helpful.
*Raffael Scheck, Colby College*
The author does his best to bring some drama into Luther's rather
pedestrian life. He suggests that Luther and Gastav Stresemann were
bitter rivals that Luther played a crucial and underrated role in
negotiating the Treaties of Locarno.
