Since its publication in 1960, William L. Shirer’s monumental study of Hitler’s German empire has been widely acclaimed as the definitive record of the 20th century’s blackest hours. The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich offers an unparalleled and thrillingly told examination of how Adolf Hitler nearly succeeded in conquering the world. With millions of copies in print around the globe, it has attained the status of a vital and enduring classic.

There is no story in 20th-century history more important to understand than Hitler’s rise to power and the collapse of civilization in Nazi Germany. With The Coming of the Third Reich, Richard Evans, one of the world’s most distinguished historians, has written the definitive account for our time.

In The Third Reich: A History of Nazi Germany, Thomas Childers shows how the young Hitler became passionately political and anti-Semitic as he lived on the margins of society. Fueled by outrage at the punitive terms imposed on Germany by the Versailles Treaty, he found his voice and drew a loyal following.

Evans interweaves a broad narrative of the war’s progress with viscerally affecting personal testimony from a wide range of people - from generals to front-line soldiers, from Hitler Youth activists to middle-class housewives. The Third Reich at War lays bare the dynamics of a nation more deeply immersed in war than any society before or since. Fresh insights into the conflict’s great events are here, from the invasion of Poland to the Battle of Stalingrad to Hitler’s suicide in the bunker.

Dieses Hörbuch bietet eine knappe Gesamtdarstellung des Dritten Reiches auf dem neuesten Forschungsstand. Nach einer Analyse der Faktoren, die den Aufstieg des Nationalsozialismus und die Etablierung der Diktatur ermöglicht haben, ist der größere Teil der Lesung den Jahren von 1939 bis 1945 gewidmet, in denen sich die deutsche Geschichte in eine europäische und welthistorische Dimension ausweitet. Klar und prägnant im Urteil informiert Ulrich Herbert über Hitlers Krieg gegen die Sowjetunion, die deutsche Besatzungsherrschaft in Europa und die Ermordung der europäischen Juden.

Dieses Hörbuch enthält umfangreiches Material und O-Töne zur Machtergreifung Adolf Hitlers (Jahre 1930 bis 1933) aus den wichtigsten Zeitungen des Jahres 1933, Dokumentensammlungen und der Veröffentlichung des Nürnberger Internationalen Militär-Tribunals (Erinnerungen und Darstellungen u.a. von Goebbels, Otto Dietrich, Göring, Otto Braun, Severing, Noske, Brüning, Brecht, Schwertfeger, Düsterberg, Kramer, Schlange-Schöningen, Meissner, Francois-Poncet) sowie ergänzende Mitteilungen von Persönlichkeiten, die in amtlicher Stellung im Reichswehrministerium, im Auswärtigen Amt und in anderen Reichsbehörden aus persönlicher Erinnerung über die damaligen Vorgänge Auskunft geben konnten.

Few events have had a greater impact on human history than the ascension to power of the Nazi Party in Germany in January 1933. This was no coup: the party gained some power via democratic elections, although once it was established, it quickly took absolute control over all aspects of the state.

Nach Ende des Ersten Weltkriegs erschütterten Aufstände, Generalstreiks und Straßenkämpfe das geschlagene Deutschland. In Oberschlesien griffen polnische Aufständische nach dem deutschen Industriegebiet, im Ruhrgebiet zwangen französische und belgische Truppen mit äußerster Brutalität die streikenden Bergarbeiter zum Frondienst. Ein ganzes Land wurde zum Spielball ausländischer Kräfte.

By 1943, the war was lost, and most German officers knew it. What kept the German army going in an increasingly hopeless situation? Where some historians have found explanations in the power of Hitler or the role of ideology, Robert M. Citino, the world's leading scholar on the subject, posits a more straightforward solution: Bewegungskrieg, the way of war cultivated by the Germans over the course of history. In this book, Citino charts the path by which Bewegungskrieg, or a "war of movement," inexorably led to Nazi Germany's defeat.

This book is the culmination of more than three decades of meticulous historiographic research on Nazi Germany by one of the period’s most distinguished historians. The volume brings together the most important and influential aspects of Ian Kershaw’s research on the Holocaust for the first time. The writings are arranged in three sections - Hitler and the Final Solution, popular opinion and the Jews in Nazi Germany, and the Final Solution in historiography - and Kershaw provides an introduction and a closing section on the uniqueness of Nazism.

From the overwhelming operational victories at Kerch and Kharkov in May to the catastrophic defeats at El Alamein and Stalingrad, Death of the Wehrmacht offers an eye-opening new view of that decisive year. Building upon his widely respected critique in The German Way of War, Citino shows how the campaigns of 1942 fit within the centuries-old patterns of Prussian/German warmaking and ultimately doomed Hitler's expansionist ambitions.

In January 1945, the Red Army launched a powerful offensive across the Vistula River to drive the Wehrmacht out of Poland, with the intention of securing a start line for an operation that would ultimately result in the capture of Berlin and the end of the war. But, as Prit Buttar expertly reveals, there were other issues at play. Stalin was determined to push the boundaries of the Soviet Union further west, restoring land lost by the tsars and securing vast industrial and mineral wealth.

Bestselling historian Professor Frank McDonough tackles the subject in the same way as his brilliantly reviewed and bestselling titles in this series. The penultimate title in the Hitler's Germany series, the book marks the end of the Second World War, and the end of the Nazi regime, offering the listener a sweeping narrative tackling the major characters, significant events of this horrific period of Nazi doctrine formed in their early years of the 1920s, that would evolve into full-blown genocide of a race of people by the end of World War Two.
