About this episode
"The great questions of the day will not be settled by means of speeches and majority decisions but by iron and blood.” These words were immortalised by Otto Von Bismark, the Iron Chancellor who created the state of Germany as we know it today. “Iron and Blood” is also the title of a book by this week’s guest, the German historian Katja Hoyer, who joins Steven Edginton to discuss Germany’s past, present and future.
