The New York Times called this book "one of the most important works in the field of modern history."
This book has been awarded the National Book Award, translated into almost all languages, reprinted more than 30 times - and it still finds thousands and thousands of new readers all over the world.
What gives William Shearer's work such value? Why do many scientists consider it 'the best thing that has been written about Nazism in Germany'?
The author does not just state facts and describe events, he analyzes in detail and objectively the origins of the emergence of National Socialism.
The course of German history and the peculiarities of the German national mentality, the widespread theory of the "special path" of Germany, the political and economic impasse in which the country found itself after the Treaty of Versailles, the ideological roots of National Socialism and even the details of Hitler's biography - all this William Shearer brings together and studies in the aggregate of mutual influences.
