Despite the large literature about Nazi Germany, little has been published in English in the way of first-hand source material. This book of original documents draws upon the fruits of intensive research by scholars in Germany and elsewhere over the past decade. The book covers the rise of the Nazi movement from its early days in Munich after the First World War, the `seizure of power' in 1933-34, German opposition to Hitler, foreign policy, and such cardinal issues as Party-State relations, the system of terror, antisemitism, and the Third Reich at war. The editors have combined the more important official documents with personal accounts of how the Nazis succeeded in winning power, and of life in the Third Reich. A wide range of sources has been ed - the archives of the German Federal Republic, material from the Nurt-mberg trials, memoirs and other documents published in Germany both before and after the war. There are substantial introductions to the documents which yet them in the context of recent research leading to a fundamental revision of views about how the Nazi regime operated in practice. The result is a book which will fascinate all who are interested in the phenomenon of Nazism.
