This is an amazing read covers from family history of Hitler through to Goebbels's family suicide.
Its a big book, literally, the first 950 pages are the rise and the last 200 are the fall, which when it came arrived fast. The seeds for it, however, were sown at El Alamein and Stalingrad, two huge defeats and Hitler becoming more and more unraveled.
I'm still astonished how nearly a hundred years after the fact a group of gangsters were able to take over a country and cause the deaths of millions. Chamberlain was weak and naive but at the end of the day it was the citizens of Germany who voted these monsters into power.
You have to ask the question, what is it with this country? Two world wars in the 20th century, common denominator, Germany.
History must never forget what Germany has done, from the stupid Nazi follower to the I.G Farben's who profited mightily from evil.
This is a book that should be taught right through the education system so every generation can see what politicians are capable of.
