Karl Muller

Professor Karl Muller was a German author who lived in the country during the period of the Weimar Republic.

Biography
In 1927, Muller published a book in Berlin titled Ballots, Blood and Bullets – Political Chaos in Post-War Germany, a commentary on the political situation in Germany following defeat in the First World War. In the book, Muller delivered an account of the Beer Hall Putsch in 1923 and opined that the National Socialist German Workers Party had ruined its chances of electoral success after its failed participation.

However, Muller's assessment was wrong. In 1933, Adolf Hitler's Nazis came to power and established the brutal dictatorship of the Third Reich. When the Nazis began clamping down on dissenting views, Muller's book was banned while Muller himself was executed. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Exodus)
