Rise And Fall Of The Third Reich - Softcover
It was Hitler’s boast that the Third Reich would last a thousand years. Instead it lasted only twelve. But into its short life was packed the most cataclysmic series of events that Western civilisation has ever known.
William Shirer is one of the very few historians to have gained full access to the secret German archives which the Allies captured intact. He was also present at the Nuremberg trials. This is his authoritative historical account of the years 1933–45, when the Nazis, under the rule of their despotic leader Adolf Hitler, ruled Germany. They commandeered the Holocaust, one of the most shocking acts of evil in modern history, plunged the world into a second war, and changed the face of modern history and modern Europe forever.

Review:
"The standard work by which all others on the subject are still measured . . . Erudite, comprehensive and detailed, always lively and readable, it is the model of what a popular narrative history should be." (Guardian)
"One of the most important works of history of our time." (New York Times)
"In this political season, William L. Shirer’s mammoth history of Hitler’s Germany seems a useful guide to how a skilled demagogue can seize and destroy a great nation." (Chicago Tribune)
"A splendid work of scholarship, objective in method, sound in judgment, inescapable in its conclusions." (New York Times Book Review)
"A work which everyone should read." (Hugh Trevor-Roper)
