Synopsis:
The definitive study of Hitler's role in the greatest act of genocide of the twentieth century.
The Holocaust differs from other genocides in recent history for one main reason: there is no other example in which a minority was annihilated systematically and as completely as possible on the orders of a head of state and through the apparatus of government.
To reconstruct Hitler's central role in the Final Solution represents a particular challenge. Hitler treated the murder of the Jews as a matter of the utmost secrecy and was careful wherever possible not to leave behind any written orders. Wherever his instructions on this matter are recorded he has used codified language. He kept away from the implementation of the orders and feigned ignorance, even to his closest friends and colleagues. Under these conditions, the surviving source material can only be described as fragmentary.
The aim of the book is to offer documentary proof of Hitler's central role in the murder of the European Jews. In order to achieve this aim, various documents and fragments of documents have been pieced together and the codified language of the dictator deciphered.
Review:
‘Peter Longerich is one of the leading German authorities on the Holocaust and the author of an outstanding study of Nazi extermination policies.’ -- Ian Kershaw, author of Hitler 1889-1936: Hubris and Hitler 1936-1945: Nemesis.
‘a compelling account of how Hitler came to take the decision to kill the Jews.’ -- Richard Evans, author of In Defense of History
‘what part did Hitler play in the Holocaust?... the finest account to date of the many twists and turns of Adolf Hitler’s anti-semitic obsession.’ -- Professor Richard Overy, author of Interrogations: The Nazi Elite in Allied Hands, 1945
