In The Gestapo, Jacques Delarue unflinchingly probes the organization's history, and explains how such a horrific institution could come into being, who was behind it, what they did, and why. Drawing upon interviews with ex~Gestapo agents and the organization's published and unpublished archives, Delarue delivers a complex history of the brutally efficient force whose work included murdering student resisters, soliciting denunciations of "political criminals," establishing Aryan eugenic unions, and running concentration camps. The Gestapo and its leaders ~ Himmler, Barbie, Eichmann, Heydrich, Muller, and others ~ devised and implemented some of the most exotic and abhorrent torture and extermination techniques the world has ever seen. This book offers a clear view of its crimes against humanity. JACQUES DELARUE was a member of the French Resistance and enjoyed a long career with the Surete Nationale. He authored books on the Resistance, Charles de Gaulle, and the Algerian War.

The Gestapo came into existence in 1933 as Department 1A of the Prussian State Police. Under the SS, the Gestapo grew in power, and was given the job of investigating and combatting 'all tendencies dangerous to the state'. Schutzhaft (protective custody) gave the Gestapo the power to imprison without judicial proceedings, often in concentration camps. It was also responsible for destroying opposition to Hitler. By early 1942, as the Nazi regime became increasingly unpopular in Germany, a number of protests took place. The Gestapo's response was brutal. Thousands were arrested and executed, and all dissent was crushed.The History of the Gestapo provides an authoritative overview of this sinister instrument of repression. Never before had an organisation attained such complexity, been vested with such power, or reached such a pitch of 'perfection' in efficiency and horror. Jacques Delarue relates the story for the first time in authoritative detail. After the liberation of France Mosier Delarue was placed in charge of the files on the German Gestapo, their counterfoils in Germany had been destroyed, espionage organisations and war crimes. From this unique position he was able to assemble a vast amount of material from which he has selected all the vital facts. This is a serious and well documented study of one of the darkest periods of world history, a period which needs to be remembered if only to ensure that it can never recur. Ref GGG3.
