$75.26

In the spring of 1933, German society was deeply divided, yet, once Hitler seized power, his creation of a socially inclusive Volksgemeinschaft, promising equality, economic prosperity and the restoration of honor and pride after the humiliating ending of World War I persuaded many Germans to support him and to shut their eyes to dictatorial coercion, concentration camps, secret state police, and the exclusion of large sections of the population. This book offers one of the most comprehensive accounts of this transformation.
