Despite the displacement of countless authors, frequent bans of
specific titles, and high-profile book burnings, the German book
industry boomed during the Nazi period. Notwithstanding the
millions of copies of Mein Kampf that were sold, the era's most
popular books were diverse and often surprising in retrospect,
despite an oppressive ideological and cultural climate: Huxley's
Brave New World was widely read in the 1930s, while Saint-Exupery's
Wind, Sand and Stars was a great success during the war years.
Bestsellers of the Third Reich surveys this motley collection of
books, along with the circumstances of their publication, to
provide an innovative new window into the history of Nazi Germany.
