Reader Reviews
This review is from: Illustrated History of the Third Reich (Hardcover)
This book begins with the defeat of Germany in World War I and concludes with the surrender on VE Day. Included in length are photos of the turmoil that took place inbetween the end of World War I and the founding of the Weimar Republic, the fighting by the Communists, and the Bavarian coups. The war pictures are themselves revealing as well. The text accompanying the photos is a well-detailed (for a book mainly of pictures) history. However, the real treat in this book are the colour pictures, which include war photos, war insignia, and posters. Page 78, for example, has a Volkswagen ad, and the family rallying for Nazism picture was used by Laibach for the cover of their album, Sympathy For The Devil. The black and white photos also provide a time capsule into an age that's looked at in both horror and fascination, though it's more the latter for me. Other documents included are a copy of the Instrument of Surrender signed by Montgomery and the Nuremberg Laws written by Dr. Wilhelm Stuckart. The glossary at the end includes a list of German titles and terms, such as Einsatzkommando, Kries, and Abwehr, a list of second rank officials such as Reinhard Heydrich, Roland Freisler, and Julius Streicher, and what their positions were in the Reich. Seeing as how Bradley borrowed from Shirer and Liddell-Hart, who are among the top in this field, this is a worthy book.
