Description: This book takes a look at the popular myths surrounding the rise and fall of the Third Reich. It takes a fresh look at how the Nazis came to power, ruled and the role of Hitler within the Party. It describes the horrors of the Eastern Front including the occupation of Poland, the growth of anti-Semitism which culminated in the Gas Chambers of Treblinka and Auschwitz. It considers how a cultured nation such as Germany could be responsible for such acts and it challenges the accepted perception that Hitler was the route of all evil within the regime. The book includes over fifty eye-witness testimonies, many of whom were committed Nazis and their experiences confirm that there was a massive collaboration with the regime on all fronts and that the terrible atrocities were not only committed by the elite killing squads but were also committed by the ordinary soldier and civilian. This book sheds new light on the causes of the world’s worst conflict and the thought provoking conclusion may not be what we would like to believe.
