Doxology for the Ideal Nazi: 'Harmonic, highly readable, and meticulously researched' - NIALL FERGUSON; 'Unforgettable, haunting read' - SIMON SCHAMA; 'A thrilling and outstanding journey into the brutality of evil at the heart of Nazism' - BEN MACINTYRE; 'Fascinating' - THE TIMES; 'Compelling, precisely researched, enticing' - SUNDAY CHRONICLE.
This radical new perspective on the Holocaust is presented in various ways. Firstly, it describes how German policy developed and was executed in detail, providing a map for 'the long and winding road to Auschwitz.' Secondly, it allows us to hear new voices, particularly women, who were perpetrators, resistors, and victims. These offer human perspectives on the events, necessary for true understanding. Finally, it provides a reevaluation of the moral perspective that led to the Holocaust, exploring why anti-Semitic hatred was such a strong motivator for many Germans.
The focus is on the mindset that led to the Holocaust and the desired goal of 'restoring Germany.' It clarifies the stories of women, highlighting the psychology of faithful Nazis and emphasizing the atrocities endured by women during the Holocaust.
The Holocaust shows it was not the power of one singular evil leader that created it, but a system of thousands of moving parts. History must be understood as a whole, interweaving wars, politics, ideology, and ultimately, insignificance.
