It is, but probably not in great enough detail to mention individuals instead of general economic trends. I can't say I have ever heard this guy's name before today, either.

Well, when it comes to the interim between the World Wars, I got a comprehensive look at the aftermath of WW1, the consequences of the Treaty of Versailles and how they influenced the political landscape inside Germany and in Europe, looked at the political landscape itself, went through Hitler's rise in popularity and all the meddling that ensued as a result of that, the economic struggles ...
Of course I can only speak for myself and my own situation, but my history teacher devoted more than half a year to the first half of the 20th century, so I got some quality education there. :) (It helps that I am actually interested in learning about history, so I know a lot from out-of-the-classroom readings anyway.) YMMV.
