THE SOCIAL HISTORY OF THE THIRD REICH 1933-1945
Book Type: By Pierre Aycoberry. Author combines a mastery of German history with original research to produce this uniquely balanced account of all aspects of German life under Hitler. Pierre Ay�_oberry uncovers the struggles of individuals and social and professional groups who stood up to the pressure of the Nazi Party, often paying a high price, and the attempts of others���mainly upper and middle class professionals���to salvage or improve their positions by casting their lot with the F�_hrer. He also shows the devastation wrought on the once-vibrant German labor movement, leaving workers to choose between hopeless defiance or complicity and nationalism. In this complex answer to the easy judgments passed by many, Ay�_oberry paints a multilayered portrait of a society at once victim and accomplice to one of the greatest crimes of all time.
