Heinz Rutha, pioneer of a youth movement that emphasized male bonding in its quest to reassert German dominance over Czechoslovakia, was arrested in 1937 for corrupting male adolescents. This led to an international scandal. Cornwall's biography is the first to tackle the long-taboo intersection of youth, homosexuality, and fascist nationalism.

Rezension zu „The Devil's Wall - The Nationalist Youth Mission of Heinz Rutha “
In The Devil's Wall Mark Cornwall, Professor of Modern European History at Southampton University, reclaims for LGBT history the little-known story of Heinz Rutha (1897-1937), a German-speaking activist in Czechoslovakia in the years leading up to World War II. Rutha was part of the Wandervogel movement, ostensibly an organization of clean-living lads, but in reality an all-male hothouse which produced a generation of right-wing homosexuals...He was poised to become a leading figure in German politics. But he may have been betrayed by Czech cops, who accused him of (illegal) homosexuality. -- David McGillivray QX Magazine 20120614 The Devil's Wall looks at how youth, nationalism and homosexuality overlapped with fascism and the Czech-German struggle of early-20th-century Europe. Focusing on Heinz Rutha, a pioneer of a youth movement emphasizing male bonding, Cornwall's biography of this unusual and possibly repressed figure promises to be engrossing. -- Will Davis Attitude 20120601
