Description
|
|
|
|
Beginning in the aftermath of World War I and the punitive Treaty of Versailles that made German recovery almost impossible, Martyn Whittock's history is an account of men who rose to the fore during the Weimar Republic and circled around the cult of personality generated by Adolf Hitler. The Head of Humanities and History at Kingdown School, Warminster, as well as a history consultant for the BBC and the National Trust, Whittock gives us a convincing character-driven overview of how ordinary Germans became seduced by dreams of a new world order. He offers insight into everyday life in Germany during the war, asks how much the Germans knew about the Holocaust, and looks at why the regime failed so disastrously.
