This atlas charts the rise and fall of Hitler's Nazi state, from the first mass meeting to the NSDAP in Munich in 1920, through the relentless territorial aggression and anti-Jewish atrocities of World War II, to the execution of war criminals at Nuremberg in 1946. An informative, one-volume handbook that documants the rise and fall of one of the most terrifying and destructive regimes in world history.
Consists of short entries on major figures in the Third Reich, central elements of Nazi ideology, the main events of World War II, etc., including the following: Anti-Semitism, Crystal Night, Final Solution, Nuremberg Laws, Race. Pp. 11-20 give a chronology of events from January 1933 to May 1945. Includes photographs, a selection of quotations from Hitler's writings, and a list for further reading (pp. 391-392).
This first-ever up-to-date one-volume international history of Nazi Germany rest gives full weight to the experiences of ordinary people who were swept up in, or repelled by, Hitler's movement.
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.
Originally published in hardback only in 1987, Michael Freeman's valuable guide to the history of Nazi Germany now returns to print in a substantially revised Second Edition. Dealing with all aspects of the Nazi regime, it is far more than just an atlas: the integration of the maps themselves with charts and other visually-displayed data, and an extensive and authoritative commentary, makes this a book to read as well as to refer to.
