The Nazi regime was essentially a religious cult, relying on the
hypnotic personality of one man, Adolf Hitler, and it was fated to
die with him. But while it lasted, his closest lieutenants competed
ferociously for power and position as his chosen successor. This
deadly contest accounted for many of the regime's worst excesses,
in which millions of people died, and which brought Western
civilization to its knees. The Devil's Disciples is the first major
book for a general readership to examine those lieutenants, not
only as individuals but also as a group. It focuses on the three
Nazi paladins closest to Hitler - Goring, Goebbels and Himmler -
with their nearest rivals - Bormann, Speer and Ribbentrop in close
attendance. Others who were removed in various ways - like Gregor
Strasser, Ernst R-hm, Heydrich and Hess - play supporting roles.
Perceptive and illuminating, The Devil's Disciples is above all a
powerful chronological narrative, showing how the personalities of
Hitler's inner circle developed and how their jealousies and
constant intrigues affected the regime, the war, and Hitler
himself.
