The Third Reich in Power
Synopsis

The definitive account of Germany.s malign transformation under Hitler.s
total rule and the implacable march to war

This magnificent second volume of Richard J. Evans.s three-volume history
of Nazi Germany was hailed by Benjamin Schwartz of the Atlantic Monthly as
.the definitive English-language account... gripping and precise..
It chronicles the incredible story of Germany.s radical reshaping under
Nazi rule. As those who were deemed unworthy to be counted among the German
people were dealt with in increasingly brutal terms, Hitler.s drive
to prepare Germany for the war that he saw as its destiny reached its
fateful hour in September 1939. The Third Reich in Power is the fullest
and most authoritative account yet written of how, in six years, Germany
was brought to the edge of that terrible abyss.

The Third Reich at War
Synopsis

An absorbing, revelatory, and definitive account of one of the greatest
tragedies in human history

Adroitly blending narrative, description, and analysis, Richard J. Evans
portrays a society rushing headlong to self-destruction and taking much
of Europe with it. Interweaving a broad narrative of the war's progress
from a wide range of people, Evans reveals the dynamics of a society
plunged into war at every level. The great battles and events of the
conflict are here, but just as telling is Evans's re- creation of the daily
experience of ordinary Germans in wartime. At the center of the book is
the Nazi extermi.nation of the Jews. The final book in Richard J. Evan's
three-volume history of Hitler's Germany, hailed "a masterpiece" by
The New York Times, The Third Reich at War lays bare the most momentous
and tragic years of the Nazi regime.
