About the Book

The third and final volume in Richard J Evans's masterly trilogy on the history of Nazi Germany traces the rise and fall of German military might. The mobilization of an entire peoples community in the service of a war of conquest, racial subjugation and genocide.

Interweaving a broad narrative of the war's progress with personal testimony from a wide range of people, from generals to front line troops, from Hitler youth activists to middle class housewives, Richard evans lays bare the dynamics of a society plunged into war at every level. The great battles and events of the war are here, from the invasion of Poland to the battle of Stalingrad , from the Bomb plot of 20th July 1944 to Hitler's sucide in the bunker, but just as important is the re-creation of the daily experience of ordinary Germans in Wartime, under the growing impact of the mass bombing of Germany's towns and cities. At the centre of the book is the Nazi's extermination of Europes Jews set in the context of Hitler's genocidal plans for the racial restructuring of Europe.

Blending narrative, description and analysis, The Third Reich at War creates a picture of a society rushing headlong into self destruction and taking a large part of Europe with it. It is the culmination of a historical masterpiece.
