APEX OF GLORY details the history of the Daimler-Benz Car Company from its humble beginnings, through the period of Imperial Germany, into the Weimar period, and its phenomenal growth during the Third Reich. Research by Taylor shows how the company became uneasy about Germany’s possibility of winning the war. As early as 1942, they secretly developed a strategy, which would allow the company continued growth in the immediate post war years. Surviving Germany’s defeat in 1945, Daimler-Benz had reached the Apex of Glory just a decade later in 1955.
