The Other Kaisers by Oliver Thomson

The Other Kaisers by Oliver Thomson

Oliver Thomson's book The Other Kaisers is one of the first books to look at the proliferation of German dynasties throughout Europe. Aimed at the general reader The Other Kaisers will appeal to anyone with an interest in biography and history, particularly royal history. The book's underlying theme is the 'Germanness' of the House of Windsor up until 1935, which is explored in depth with a chapter on each family, from the House of Oldenburg to the Tsarinas from Hesse Darmstadt. The Other Kaisers provides the reader with a detailed travelogue section which indicates surviving points of interest throughout the world.

Oliver Thomson read history at Cambridge and later added a PhD at Glasgow University, where he has been a part-time lecturer for many years. His main career was in the advertising industry. He has written over a dozen books, many of which focus on propaganda and mass manipulation leading to oppressive governments and unnecessary wars. They include 'Easily Led: a History of Propaganda' and for Amberley ‘The Impossible Bourbons’, ‘The Other Kaisers’ and ‘Zealots’, an investigation into the religious roots of the Scottish and English Civil Wars. Several of his books have appeared in Japanese and Portuguese translation.
