From one of the most respected authorities on the subject, here is a definitive history of Hitler's Germany. A classic of both text and photographs, it describes the political events leading up to the Nazi seizure of power in 1933, the creation of Hitler's police state, the outbreak of war in Europe in 1939, and Germany's central role in the Holocaust. Includes hundreds of photographs, many in color, as well as a glossary of German terms, a list of Nazi Party officials, and the full text of the Nuremberg Laws.
