Publisher Description
The definitive account of Germany’s malign transformation under Hitler’s total rule and the implacable march to war This magnificent second volume of Richard J. Evans’s three-volume history of Nazi Germany was hailed by Benjamin Schwartz of the Atlantic Monthly as “the definitive English-language account… gripping and precise.” It chronicles the incredible story of Germany’s radical reshaping under Nazi rule. As those who were deemed unworthy to be counted among the German people were dealt with in increasingly brutal terms, Hitler’s drive to prepare Germany for the war that he saw as its destiny reached its fateful hour in September 1939. The Third Reich in Power is the fullest and most authoritative account yet written of how, in six years, Germany was brought to the edge of that terrible abyss.

“This is the second book in a trilogy on the rise and fall of the Third Reich by Richard Evans. Like the first book in the set, it presents the political, social, and economic events taking place within and around Germany from 1933 when the Nazis came to power to the eve of World War II in great detail, but never so much that you get bogged down. I am looking forward to finishing out the series later this year.”
