Review:
"A terrific book. Nicholas Stargardt brilliantly explores diaries, letters and other previously untapped sources to provide more vivid and nuanced insight than ever before achieved into the motivation of ordinary Germans fighting the most horrific war of all time" -- Ian Kershaw "A gripping new book...To write like this requires a rare sensitivity and psychological sophistication coupled with a degree of fearlessness...Stargardt impresses not only as a cultural historian. He also has an impressively strong grasp on the military narrative of the war. And this is indispensable...Stargardt has given us a truly profound piece of history" New York Times Book Review "Beautifully written and convincingly argued, this book is a must" -- Saul Friedlander, author of Nazi Germany and the Jews "A considerable success" -- Simon Heffer Literary Review "Sympathetic and nuanced portraits of German men and women... Intimate account of individual Germans' experiences of war, Stargardt explores private emotions... Beautifully written... He writes with the correct tone and sensitivity." -- Wendy Lower Times Literary Supplement

I've always wondered how the citizens of such an advanced and enlightened nation could have supported and rallied behind Hitler for as long as his regime was active. I still have questions and will most likely find more answers as I continue to read, but this deeply researched work is answering some of them. Through it you see how Germans at home and off fighting the war away from home coped or failed to cope and successfully or not so successfully rationalized to themselves things they saw, knew about, or did themselves. You learn what the average citizen and soldier was up against, a viewpoint I've not found in other scholarly works on the war. Sargardt impressively draws upon many resources and offers evidence of life in Germany, from how Germans dealt with food rationing to how institutions such as the Church responded to the regime and its policies ."; 6 X 1.65 X 9.25 inches; 736 pages.
