Midmorning Book Club: 'All Quiet on the Western Front'

Broadcast: Midmorning, 11/23/2007, 10:06 a.m.

After World War I, weariness and the deaths of so many young men inspired a classic, published in 1929. The novel, "All Quiet on the Western Front," and the 1930 movie version convinced many people in Germany and around the world that World War I should be the last war.

Guests

Eric Weitz: Chair of the history department at the University of Minnesota and scholar of German history. His latest book is "Weimar Germany: Promise and Tragedy."

Ingrid Geerken: Psychotherapist and English professor at Oberlin College.
