A thought-provoking assessment and documentation of one of the most terrible periods in history -- the rise and fall of the Nazi Party.
Klappentext zu „The Oxford Illustrated History of the Third Reich “
At age thirty in 1919, Adolf Hitler had no accomplishments. He was a rootless loner, a corporal in a shattered army, without money or prospects. A little more than twenty years later, in autumn 1941, he directed his dynamic forces against the Soviet Union, and in December, the Germans were at the gates of Moscow and Leningrad. At that moment, Hitler appeared -- however briefly -- to be the most powerful ruler on the planet. Given this dramatic turn of events, it is little wonder that since 1945 generations of historians keep trying to explain how it all happened.This richly illustrated history provides a readable and fresh approach to the complex history of the Third Reich, from the coming to power of the Nazis in 1933 to the final collapse in 1945. Using photographs, paintings, propaganda images, and a host of other such materials from a wide range of sources, including official documents, cinema, and the photography of contemporary amateurs, foreigners, and the Allied armies, it distils our ideas about the period and provides a balanced and accessible account of the whole era.

Pressezitat
Having assembled an impressive group of experts, the volume proceeds thematically to address most every aspect of the Third Reich. All ten chapters are well informed by contemporary scholarship but acces-sible to a lay audience. Politics, culture, war, society, and economy all receive their due. That this volume is richly illustrated with primary sources, film clips, photographs, paintings, and other visual media adds to the diversity and relatability of the contributions. Robert Dassanowsky, Journal of Modern History
