An American dentist who lived in Berlin 1904 to 1918 recalls the Kaiser. He notes the monarch’s disdain for modernity, his support for dynastic dignity, and his hostility to socialism. The Kaiser clung to royal pomp, distrusted democracy, and believed Germans should be ruled by a single ruler as God’s chosen.
