Forgotten fatherland

the search for Elisabeth Nietzsche

by

  • 7 Want to read

In 1886 Elisabeth Nietzsche, Friedrich's bigoted, imperious sister, founded a 'racially pure' colony in Paraguay together with a band of blond-haired fellow Germans. Over a century later, Ben Macintyre sought out the survivors of Nueva Germania to discover the remains of this bizarre colony. 'Forgotten Fatherland' vividly recounts his arduous adventure locating the survivors, while also tracing the colourful history of Elisabeth's return to Europe, where she inspired the mythical cult of her brother's philosophy and later became a mentor to Hitler.
